You can use @Environment(\.colorScheme) var colorScheme: ColorScheme in any view to get whether the device is in dark mode (.dark) or light mode (.light). Using that information, you can conditionally decide which image to show easily with a ternary operator.

For example, if you have an image named "lightImage" for light mode and "darkImage" for dark mode:

@Environment(\.colorScheme) var colorScheme: ColorScheme

var body: some View {
    Button(action: {
        foo()
    }) {
        Image(colorScheme == .light ? "lightImage" : "darkImage")
    }
}
