Library used (support-v4, appcompat-v7, ...): 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1' and 'com.android.support:design:23.1.1'
Theme used: Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar
Devices/Android versions reproduced on: 6.0.1, 5.1, 4.4, 4.2.2 (not as bad)

Basically the WebView inside a NestedScrollView doesn't work properly when using sites that want to continuously load more content as you scroll to the end of the page. It is as if the site can't detect that it is at the end of the page. Also scroll continues beyond the page on Android 4.4+, on 4.2.2 it seems to stop near the bottom.

Also probably related to this issue, if you enable this line view.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_HARDWARE, null); then the app crashes because OpenGL thinks the surface is larger than the maximum. Neither problem happens without NestedScrollView.


Here is my layout:
