I wrote a few small Android apps using Kivy, and I ran into some problems with performance with scrolling lists of buttons. Doing it the most obvious, natural way led to obvious poor performance — a list of more than a dozen or so buttons simply could not be scrolled without accidentally clicking on one. There was a recommended workaround, which I found and used, and its performance was slightly less obviously bad — it showed up with dozens of bad reviews from users of slightly outdated devices. The last I looked, Kivy had not progressed on that issue. I didn't continue to use it, and don't know if it has other similar problems, but it was a discouraging experience for me.


Did you by any chance use recycleview for the listviews? Seems to be the recommended way but the documentation is not very clear on how to use them.
