Swift 4 and Constraints   To your tableview add a bottom constraint relative to the bottom safe area  In my case the constraint is called tableViewBottomLayoutConstraint    IBOutlet weak var tableViewBottomLayoutConstraint  NSLayoutConstraint   override func viewWillAppear   animated  Bool        super viewWillAppear animated       NotificationCenter default addObserver self  selector   selector keyboardWillAppear notification     name   UIKeyboardWillShow  object  nil      NotificationCenter default addObserver self  selector   selector keyboardWillDisappear notification     name   UIKeyboardWillHide  object  nil     override func viewWillDisappear   animated  Bool        super viewWillDisappear animated       NotificationCenter default removeObserver self  name   UIKeyboardWillShow   object  nil      NotificationCenter default removeObserver self  name   UIKeyboardWillHide   object  nil      objc  func keyboardWillAppear notification  NSNotification          guard let keyboardFrame   notification  userInfo  UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey  as  NSValue else           return            let keyboardHeight  CGFloat     if  available iOS 11 0               keyboardHeight   keyboardFrame cgRectValue height - self view safeAreaInsets bottom       else           keyboardHeight   keyboardFrame cgRectValue height            tableViewBottomLayoutConstraint constant   keyboardHeight     objc  func keyboardWillDisappear notification  NSNotification         tableViewBottomLayoutConstraint constant   0 0

Swift You can get the keyboard height by subscribing to the UIKeyboardWillShowNotification notification   Assuming you want to know what the height will be before it s shown   Swift 4 NotificationCenter default addObserver      self      selector   selector keyboardWillShow       name  UIResponder keyboardWillShowNotification      object  nil     objc func keyboardWillShow   notification  Notification        if let keyboardFrame  NSValue   notification userInfo  UIResponder keyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey  as  NSValue           let keyboardRectangle   keyboardFrame cgRectValue         let keyboardHeight   keyboardRectangle height          Swift 3 NotificationCenter default addObserver      self      selector   selector keyboardWillShow       name  NSNotification Name UIKeyboardWillShow      object  nil     objc func keyboardWillShow   notification  Notification        if let keyboardFrame  NSValue   notification userInfo  UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey  as  NSValue           let keyboardRectangle   keyboardFrame cgRectValue         let keyboardHeight   keyboardRectangle height          Swift 2 NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter   addObserver self  selector   quot keyboardWillShow  quot   name  UIKeyboardWillShowNotification  object  nil   func keyboardWillShow notification  NSNotification            let userInfo  NSDictionary   notification userInfo          let keyboardFrame  NSValue   userInfo valueForKey UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey  as  NSValue         let keyboardRectangle   keyboardFrame CGRectValue           let keyboardHeight   keyboardRectangle height
