         <CheckBox value={true} onValueChange={() => console.log("value might change")}/> 
        </View>
     )
  }
}

CheckBox has only been added into React-Native in version 0.49, and only for Android. Which means that if you are developing for iOS or aren't able to upgrade your app version - you will need to use a custom checkbox component.

You can check out all the changes that this new version introduced at: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/releases/tag/v0.49.0
