How can I get the UITableView scroll position so I can save it?

Question

Is there any way to find out which UITableViewCell is at the top of the scroll window?

I\'d like to get the current scroll position so that I can save

Make sure you can load in viewWillAppear and not viewDidLoad (tested iOS 9). ViewWillAppear is when view has finished layout - there is differences in the outcome.

-(void) viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
    NSUserDefaults *lightData = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
    [self.tableView setContentOffset:CGPointMake(0, [lightData floatForKey:@"yValue"])];
}

-(void) viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated {
    NSUserDefaults *lightData = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
    [lightData setFloat:self.tableView.contentOffset.y forKey:@"yValue"];
    [lightData synchronize];
}
