Answer 1

you can do this it's work for me

      mRecycleView.addOnScrollListener(new RecyclerView.OnScrollListener() {
        @Override
        public void onScrollStateChanged(RecyclerView recyclerView, int newState) {
            super.onScrollStateChanged(recyclerView, newState);
            }
        }

            @Override
            public void onScrolled(RecyclerView recyclerView, int dx, int dy) {
                super.onScrolled(recyclerView, dx, dy);
                int topRowVerticalPosition = (recyclerView == null || recyclerView.getChildCount() == 0) ?
                        0 : recyclerView.getChildAt(0).getTop();
                LinearLayoutManager linearLayoutManager1 = (LinearLayoutManager) recyclerView.getLayoutManager();
                int firstVisibleItem = linearLayoutManager1.findFirstVisibleItemPosition();
                swipeRefreshLayout.setEnabled(firstVisibleItem == 0 && topRowVerticalPosition >= 0);
            }
        });

@Saren Arterius, Using the addOnScrollListener of RecycleView, you can find the scrolling top or bottom of Vertical RecycleView like below,

RecyclerView rv = (RecyclerView)findViewById(R.id.rv);

rv.addOnScrollListener(new RecyclerView.OnScrollListener() {

            @Override
            public void onScrollStateChanged(RecyclerView recyclerView, int newState) {
                super.onScrollStateChanged(recyclerView, newState);
            }

            @Override
            public void onScrolled(RecyclerView recyclerView, int dx, int dy) {

                if (dy < 0) {
                    // Recycle view scrolling up...

                } else if (dy > 0) {
                    // Recycle view scrolling down...
                }
            }
        });

You can detect top by using the following

 recyclerView.addOnScrollListener(new RecyclerView.OnScrollListener() {

        @Override
        public void onScrolled(RecyclerView recyclerView, int dx, int dy) {
            super.onScrolled(recyclerView, dx, dy);
          }

        @Override
        public void onScrollStateChanged(RecyclerView recyclerView, int newState) {
            super.onScrollStateChanged(recyclerView, newState);
            if(IsRecyclerViewAtTop())
            {
                //your recycler view reached Top do some thing
             }
        }
    });

  private boolean IsRecyclerViewAtTop()   {
        if(recyclerView.getChildCount() == 0)
            return true;
        return recyclerView.getChildAt(0).getTop() == 0;
    }

This will detect top when you release the finger once reached top, if you want to detect as soon the reacyclerview reaches top check if(IsRecyclerViewAtTop()) inside onScrolled method

Answer 4

To find out if the RecyclerView is scrolled to bottom, you could reuse the methods used for the scrollbar.

This is the calculation, for convenience written as a Kotlin extension function:

fun RecyclerView.isScrolledToBottom(): Boolean {
    val contentHeight = height - (paddingTop + paddingBottom)
    return computeVerticalScrollRange() == computeVerticalScrollOffset() + contentHeight
}

Answer 5

You can try recyclerView.canScrollVertically(int direction), if you just need to know whether it possible to scroll or not.

Direction integers:

• -1 for up
• 1 for down
• 0 will always return false.

Answer 6

In order to check whether RecyclerView is scrolled to bottom. Use the following code.

/**
     * Check whether the last item in RecyclerView is being displayed or not
     *
     * @param recyclerView which you would like to check
     * @return true if last position was Visible and false Otherwise
     */
    private boolean isLastItemDisplaying(RecyclerView recyclerView) {
        if (recyclerView.getAdapter().getItemCount() != 0) {
            int lastVisibleItemPosition = ((LinearLayoutManager) recyclerView.getLayoutManager()).findLastCompletelyVisibleItemPosition();
            if (lastVisibleItemPosition != RecyclerView.NO_POSITION && lastVisibleItemPosition == recyclerView.getAdapter().getItemCount() - 1)
                return true;
        }
        return false;
    }

Some Additional info

If you want to implement ScrollToBottom in RecyclerView when Edittext is tapped then i recommend you add 1 second delay like this:

 edittext.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
                if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP)
                    if (isLastItemDisplaying(recyclerView)) {
// The scrolling can happen instantly before keyboard even opens up so to handle that we add 1 second delay to scrolling
                        recyclerView.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                            @Override
                            public void run() {
                                recyclerView.smoothScrollToPosition(recyclerView.getAdapter().getItemCount() - 1);

                            }
                        }, 1000);
                    }
                return false;
            }
        });
