For me, autosize textview works only in one place, and it fails to work in every other place (even where the exact same rules are applied). At this point I can’t tell what you need to make sure it tries to work. What was worst when changing one value in a RecyclerView was changing the size of another TextView’s text size, and generally adding long text in one would crop, but decrease the size of the font in another, completely unrelated item of the RecyclerView. I think the built-in AutoSize feature of TextView is just generally unreliable.
