Checkboxes aren't easy to select with the finger. A finger is much fatter than a mouse cursor, so when users try to tap a checkbox option, they'll likely miss their target and hit the wrong one. For this reason, you should avoid using standard checkboxes on mobile forms.

Most designers will work to make their form layout responsive but neglect their checkbox components. That may be fine if you only have one or two checkboxes, but if you have several lists, you should modify the design to make them selectable.
