When to use UICollectionView instead of UITableView?

Question

I found that UICollectionView is like an upgraded version of UITableView introduced in iOS6, but when should I choose UICollectionView

Answer 1

Although it's not required, I always use a collectionview. That way I can easily adapt how my collections are presented for differing resolutions. A plus is that it's ready to quickly add new types of cells when refactoring in the future.

I see no point of tableviews. It's very simple to use a collection view to represent a table. IMO.
