ChannelAvatar

import { TouchableOpacity } from 'react-native-gesture-handler';
import { ChannelList, ChannelAvatar } from 'stream-chat-react-native';

<ChannelList
  PreviewAvatar={({ channel }) => (
    <TouchableOpacity
      disallowInterruption={true}
      onPress={() => {
        /** Handler for press action */
      }}
    >
      <ChannelAvatar channel={channel} />
    </TouchableOpacity>
  )}
/>;
