You can't change that, because all cells in a table view must have the same width, but can have different heights if needed.

However, you can try to make the table view's .backgroundColor transparent, and maybe the content view of the cell, than add another "wrapper view" on the cell's content view and make it have different widths. It will create the "visual impression" that cells indeed have different widths.
