Hey there,

We're really pleased with how the plugin has grown over the past few months: there is now a large user base and it is used in numerous apps. We're proud of that and we want to thank you all for your appreciation and for making the most out of it! 😊 You've motivated us to devote countless hours maintaining and regularly improving the plugin, and we've been happy to give back to the community.

But now we're starting to feel tired of fighting React Native's core again and again, to work around the many issues of the FlatList and ScrollView components while knowing that the next critical one is just around the corner.

Now is the time to let the React Native team know how badly we need them to improve those components! 💢 (and then we'll make the plugin even better, of course 😉)

The main issues of the ScrollView/VirtualizedList/FlatList components are the following:

  • there is no scrollEnd event
  • scrollTo method doesn't accept any callback
  • Android's scrollTo animation is quite brutal
  • it is not possible to specify a scroll duration
  • there are performance issues.

React Native has a dedicated canny for feature requests. Here are the ones that need your vote the most:

If you find other feature requests or React Native issues that are relevant, do not hesitate to list them in this thread so we can vote together as a group and help putting the focus on those.

Remember that every vote counts ✊
