  1. All you have to do is set the selection style on the UITableViewCell instance using either:

    Objective-C:

    cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone;

    or

    [cell setSelectionStyle:UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone];

    Swift 2:

    cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyle.None

    Swift 3 and 4.x:

    cell.selectionStyle = .none

    Further, make sure you either don’t implement -tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: in your table view delegate or explicitly exclude the cells you want to have no action if you do implement it.
