I don't know what is the "cool animation effect just like in Grocery Shopping List app". Not everyone has that app.

Rows cannot be moved programmatically.

However, you can simultaneously insert and delete a row to simulate a move.

[tableView beginUpdates];
[tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:rowToMove]
                 withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationLeft];
[tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPathToMoveTo]
                 withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationLeft];
// update your dataSource as well.
[tableView endUpdates];
