Question

I just want the cell to briefly highlight either with a UIColor or a background image before animating back to the unselected state when a user taps the cell. I’m marking the cell with a star to show that it has been selected but would like the whole cell to highlight briefly just to show selection.

Answer 1

add this line in the didSelectRowAtIndexPath –

[tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
