- [TF-4425 Bug: load more is not working](https://github.com/linagora/tmail-flutter/issues/TF-4425)
|
|
|
|
## Context
|
|
|
|
On iOS, `handleLoadMoreEmailsRequest()` was never triggered when users scrolled to the bottom of the email list. The original condition used exact equality:
|
|
|
|
```dart
|
|
scrollInfo.metrics.pixels == scrollInfo.metrics.maxScrollExtent
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Root cause:** iOS uses `BouncingScrollPhysics` (spring-based simulation), which causes `pixels` to either overshoot or settle slightly short of `maxScrollExtent` depending on scroll speed and device performance. In both cases, `ScrollEndNotification` fires when `pixels != maxScrollExtent`, so the condition is never satisfied.
|
|
|
|
This behavior is device-dependent — newer/faster devices (iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 18) are less affected, while older/slower devices (iPhone 7, iOS 15) exhibit larger deviations. Android is unaffected because `ClampingScrollPhysics` clamps `pixels` exactly within `[0, maxScrollExtent]`.
|
|
|
|
## Decision
|
|
|
|
Apply `ClampingScrollPhysics` on iOS only, and replace `==` with `>=`:
|
|
|
|
```dart
|
|
// physics
|
|
physics: PlatformInfo.isIOS
|
|
? const ClampingScrollPhysics()
|
|
: const AlwaysScrollableScrollPhysics(),
|
|
|
|
// condition
|
|
scrollInfo.metrics.pixels >= scrollInfo.metrics.maxScrollExtent
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`ClampingScrollPhysics` ensures `pixels` is clamped exactly to `maxScrollExtent` at the boundary, making the condition deterministic. The `>=` adds a defensive guard for any residual edge cases.
|
|
|
|
## Consequences
|
|
|
|
- Load more works correctly across all iOS versions and device generations.
|
|
- No behavior change on Android or Web.
|
|
- iOS loses the native bounce feel at list boundaries. Acceptable for an email list UI.
|
|
- No risk of duplicate requests due to the existing `isRunning` guard.
