import React from "react";
import { StyleSheet, Text, View, ImageBackground } from "react-native";
import { Asset } from "expo-asset";

export default function App() {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <ImageBackground
        source={{
          uri: Asset.fromModule(require("./images/background.png")).uri,
        }}
        style={styles.image}
      ></ImageBackground>
    </View>
  );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    backgroundColor: "#fff",
    alignItems: "center",
    justifyContent: "center",
  },

According to the react native documentation:

"Note that you must specify some width and height style attributes."
