You can create uicheckbox objects in a loop in your code, depending on a list of files.
See the documentation here.

You can find more tips and advice here. The point is that you can create graphics objects with code.
n=1;
h(n)=uicheckbox('position',[10 10+100*n 50 100],...
'Text',sprintf('box %d',n),...
'parent',app.figure);
n=2;
h(2)=uicheckbox('position',[10 10+100*n 50 100],...
'Text',sprintf('box %d',n),...
'parent',app.figure);
You can probably see the pattern here. Unfortunately I can't run the code in the online environment, as uifigure is not supported.
