Android Webview scroll to bottom programmatically (Kotlin)

Question

I am trying to reach bottom of a Webview. I am getting the height of Webview inside onPageFinished() method by,

override fun onPageFinished(view: WebView?, url: String?) {

                Log.d("webview_total_height", "height " + view!!.contentHeight)
                height = view!!.contentHeight
            }

And on button click I am trying to reach to bottom by,

wvMain.scrollTo(0, height)

But it's scrolling to somewhere middle of webview, not reaching bottom

How will I reach to the bottom of webview?

If you can extend WebView try overriding and exposing protected method computeVerticalScrollRange(). — Pawel

Just replace

wvMain.scrollTo(0, height)

By

wvMain.scrollTo(0, height * getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density.toInt())

By this you will get actual height of WebView in pixels as per device screen density

I guess you will get your desired result.

Right, it also makes sens to wait for the web content to load.
