ScrollView
Component that wraps platform ScrollView while providing integration with touch locking "responder" system.
Keep in mind that ScrollViews must have a bounded height in order to work, since they contain unbounded-height children into a bounded container (via a scroll interaction). In order to bound the height of a ScrollView, either set the height of the view directly (discouraged) or make sure all parent views have bounded height. Forgetting to transfer {flex: 1}
down the view stack can lead to errors here, which the element inspector makes easy to debug.
Doesn't yet support other contained responders from blocking this scroll view from becoming the responder.
<ScrollView>
vs <ListView>
- which one to use? ScrollView simply renders all its react child components at once. That makes it very easy to understand and use. On the other hand, this has a performance downside. Imagine you have a very long list of items you want to display, worth of couple of your ScrollView’s heights. Creating JS components and native views upfront for all its items, which may not even be shown, will contribute to slow rendering of your screen and increased memory usage.
This is where ListView comes into play. ListView renders items lazily, just when they are about to appear. This laziness comes at cost of a more complicated API, which is worth it unless you are rendering a small fixed set of items.

Props
bounces
When true, the scroll view bounces when it reaches the end of the content if the content is larger then the scroll view along the axis of the scroll direction. When false, it disables all bouncing even if the alwaysBounce*
props are true. The default value is true.
Type | Required | Platform |
---|---|---|
bool | No | iOS |
contentContainerStyle
These styles will be applied to the scroll view content container which wraps all of the child views. Example:
return (
Type | Required |
---|---|
StyleSheetPropType(View Style props) | No |
keyboardDismissMode
Determines whether the keyboard gets dismissed in response to a drag.
- 'none' (the default), drags do not dismiss the keyboard.
- 'on-drag', the keyboard is dismissed when a drag begins.
- 'interactive', the keyboard is dismissed interactively with the drag and moves in synchrony with the touch; dragging upwards cancels the dismissal. On android this is not supported and it will have the same behavior as 'none'.
Type | Required |
---|---|
enum('none', 'interactive', 'on-drag') | No |
keyboardShouldPersistTaps
Determines when the keyboard should stay visible after a tap.
- 'never' (the default), tapping outside of the focused text input when the keyboard is up dismisses the keyboard. When this happens, children won't receive the tap.
- 'always', the keyboard will not dismiss automatically, and the scroll view will not catch taps, but children of the scroll view can catch taps.
- 'handled', the keyboard will not dismiss automatically when the tap was handled by a children, (or captured by an ancestor).
- false, deprecated, use 'never' instead
- true, deprecated, use 'always' instead
Type | Required |
---|---|
enum('always', 'never', 'handled', false, true) | No |
onContentSizeChange
Called when scrollable content view of the ScrollView changes.
Handler function is passed the content width and content height as parameters: (contentWidth, contentHeight)
It's implemented using onLayout handler attached to the content container which this ScrollView renders.
Type | Required |
---|---|
function | No |
onScroll
Fires at most once per frame during scrolling. The frequency of the events can be controlled using the scrollEventThrottle
prop.
Type | Required |
---|---|
function | No |
pagingEnabled
When true, the scroll view stops on multiples of the scroll view's size when scrolling. This can be used for horizontal pagination. The default value is false.

bool | No |
refreshControl
A RefreshControl component, used to provide pull-to-refresh functionality for the ScrollView.
See RefreshControl.
Type | Required |
---|---|
element | No |
removeClippedSubviews
Experimental: When true, offscreen child views (whose overflow
value is hidden
) are removed from their native backing superview when offscreen. This can improve scrolling performance on long lists. The default value is true.

: number (Android)(Android-only) Sets the elevation of a view, using Android's underlying elevation API. This adds a drop shadow to the item and affects z-order for overlapping views. Only supported on Android 5.0+, has no effect on earlier versions.
endFillColor
Sometimes a scrollview takes up more space than its content fills. When this is the case, this prop will fill the rest of the scrollview with a color to avoid setting a background and creating unnecessary overdraw. This is an advanced optimization that is not needed in the general case.
Type | Required | Platform |

color | No | Android |
scrollPerfTag
Tag used to log scroll performance on this scroll view. Will force momentum events to be turned on (see sendMomentumEvents). This doesn't do anything out of the box and you need to implement a custom native FpsListener for it to be useful.
Type | Required | Platform |
---|---|---|
string | No | Android |
alwaysBounceHorizontal
When true, the scroll view bounces horizontally when it reaches the end even if the content is smaller than the scroll view itself. The default value is true when horizontal={true}
and false otherwise.
Type | Required | Platform |
---|---|---|
bool | No | iOS |
alwaysBounceVertical
When true, the scroll view bounces vertically when it reaches the end even if the content is smaller than the scroll view itself. The default value is false when horizontal={true}
and true otherwise.

PointPropType | No | iOS |
decelerationRate
A floating-point number that determines how quickly the scroll view decelerates after the user lifts their finger. You may also use string shortcuts "normal"
and "fast"
which match the underlying iOS settings for UIScrollViewDecelerationRateNormal
and UIScrollViewDecelerationRateFast
respectively.

scrollEventThrottle
This controls how often the scroll event will be fired while scrolling (as a time interval in ms). A lower number yields better accuracy for code that is tracking the scroll position, but can lead to scroll performance problems due to the volume of information being send over the bridge. You will not notice a difference between values set between 1-16 as the JS run loop is synced to the screen refresh rate. If you do not need precise scroll position tracking, set this value higher to limit the information being sent across the bridge. The default value is zero, which results in the scroll event being sent only once each time the view is scrolled.
Type | Required | Platform |
---|---|---|
number | No | iOS |
scrollIndicatorInsets
The amount by which the scroll view indicators are inset from the edges of the scroll view. This should normally be set to the same value as the contentInset

Methods
scrollTo()
scrollTo(([y]: number), object, ([x]: number), ([animated]: boolean));
Scrolls to a given x, y offset, either immediately or with a smooth animation.
Example:
scrollTo({x: 0; y: 0; animated: true})
Note: The weird function signature is due to the fact that, for historical reasons, the function also accepts separate arguments as as alternative to the options object. This is deprecated due to ambiguity (y before x), and SHOULD NOT BE USED.
scrollToEnd()
scrollToEnd(([options]: object));
If this is a vertical ScrollView scrolls to the bottom. If this is a horizontal ScrollView scrolls to the right.
Use scrollToEnd({animated: true})
for smooth animated scrolling, scrollToEnd({animated: false})
for immediate scrolling. If no options are passed, animated
defaults to true.
scrollWithoutAnimationTo()
scrollWithoutAnimationTo(y, x);
Deprecated, use scrollTo
instead.
