Insert recycler view item with animation

I've integrated chat in my project so I have a recycler view for messages. How can I insert each new item (from bottom) with animation? I've already tried to insert items with notifyItemRangeChanged() and notifyItemInserted() but the animation is not that smooth

Try this, it works for me In your adapter,

Animation animation = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(context, R.anim.bottom_up); holder.itemView.startAnimation(animation);

The DefaultItemAnimator is responsible for a smooth transition when the adapter is notified !

So, Add the following when you initialize your recyclerview ...before notifyItemInserted(poisition) 

recyclerView.setItemAnimator(new DefaultItemAnimator());
