You can define a renderSend method and set it in the GiftedChat component as shown below

renderSend = (sendProps) => {
    if (sendProps.text.trim().length > 0) {
      return (
        <TouchableOpacity>
          <Image source={require('../../img/ic_send.png')} />
        </TouchableOpacity>
      );
    }
    return null;
  }

<GiftedChat renderSend={this.renderSend} />

This is just to give you an idea on how to set a custom icon for the send. You will probably need to add some styling and an onPress handler.
