Since I didn't see anyone list this, you can create a custom UITableViewCell that will toggle the checkmark with selection by overriding it's setSelected() method and defaulting .selectionStyle to .gray:

class CheckableTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {

    override init(style: UITableViewCell.CellStyle, reuseIdentifier: String?) {
        super.init(style: style, reuseIdentifier: reuseIdentifier)
        selectionStyle = .gray
    }

    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        super.init(coder: aDecoder)
    }

    override func setSelected(_ selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
        super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)
        accessoryType = selected ? .checkmark : .none
    }
}
