var React = require('react-native');
var {
  AppRegistry,
  StyleSheet,
  PixelRatio,
  View,
  Text,
} = React;

var ToolTip = require('react-native-tooltip');

var tooltip = React.createClass({
  getInitialState: function() {
    return {
      input: 'chirag',
    }
  },
  render: function() {
    return (
      <View style={styles.container}>
        <View style={styles.textinputContainer}>
          <ToolTip
            ref='theToolTip'
            actions={[
              {text: 'x', onPress: () => { this.setState({input: 'x pressed'}) }},
              {text: 'y', onPress: () => { this.setState({input: 'y pressed'}) }}
            ]}
            underlayColor='transparent'
            longPress={true}
            arrowDirection='down'
            style={styles.textinput}
          >
            <Text>
              {this.state.input}
            </Text>
          </ToolTip>
        </View>
      </View>
    );
  }
});

var styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    justifyContent: 'center',
    alignItems: 'center',
    backgroundColor: '#F5FCFF',
  },
  textinputContainer: {
    marginTop: 20,
    justifyContent: 'center',
    alignItems: 'center',
  },
  textinput: {
    width: 60,
    marginVertical: 2,
    marginHorizontal: 2,
    borderWidth: 1 / PixelRatio.get(),
    borderRadius: 5,
    borderColor: '#c7c7cc',
    padding: 2,
    fontSize: 14,
    backgroundColor: 'white',
  },
});

AppRegistry.registerComponent('tooltip', () => tooltip);

Note

It is also possible to open the menu programmatically, by calling this.refs.theToolTip.showMenu(); ( theToolTip being the reference of the component).

Here is how it looks:
