RecyclerView scroll to position when a new item is added

Question

I want my RecyclerView to scroll to the bottom when a new item is added to the list. Below is my code:

RecyclerView.LayoutManager layoutManager = new LinearL

ישו אוהב אותך's solution worked on other projects. But setting recyclerView.scrollToPosition() didn't work for me. This is what finally did the job:

public void addNewCard() {
    data.add("New");
    adapter.notifyItemInserted(data.size());

    scrollView.post(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            scrollView.scrollTo(0,buttonAddNewItem.getTop());
        }
    });
}
