As you know, the Image component of React Native doesn’t have an onPress prop. Hence, you can’t directly make an image clickable in React Native.
If you want to add an onPress prop to the image, then you have to use the Pressable component of React Native. Touchable Opacity has onPress prop and you can embed the Image component inside it.
In the following example, we show an alert when the image is pressed.
import React from 'react';
import {StyleSheet, Pressable, Image, View, Alert} from 'react-native';
const Home = () => {
return (
<View>
<Pressable onPress={() => Alert.alert('image clicked')}>
<Image
source={{
uri: 'https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2020/05/04/23/06/spring-5131048_960_720.jpg',
}}
style={styles.image}
/>
</Pressable>
</View>
);
};
export default Home;
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
image: {
height: 500,
width: 500,
},
});
Following is the output of this tutorial.

That’s how you add a clickable image in react native easily.
