This was a happening to me, too. My table view in my SWRevealViewController appeared white on my iPad when it looked clear (which is how I wanted it with a background image) on my iPhone. I tried all of the above but this is what ended up working for me in my viewDidLoad().

tableView.backgroundView = UIImageView(image: UIImage(named: "gray"))
tableView.backgroundView?.backgroundColor = .clearColor()
UITableViewCell.appearance().backgroundColor = .clearColor()
