Setting the content offset to the height of the content size is wrong  it scrolls the bottom of the content to the top of the scroll view  and thus out of sight   The correct solution is to scroll the bottom of the content to the bottom of the scroll view  like this  sv is the UIScrollView    CGSize csz   sv contentSize  CGSize bsz   sv bounds size  if  sv contentOffset y   bsz height  gt  csz height         sv setContentOffset CGPointMake sv contentOffset x                                        csz height - bsz height                   animated YES

If you somehow change scrollView contentSize  ex  add something to stackView which is inside scrollView  you must call scrollView layoutIfNeeded   before scrolling  otherwise it does nothing   Example   scrollView layoutIfNeeded   let bottomOffset   CGPoint x  0  y  scrollView contentSize height - scrollView bounds size height   scrollView contentInset bottom  if bottomOffset y  gt  0        scrollView setContentOffset bottomOffset  animated  true

Just an enhancement to the existing answer   CGPoint bottomOffset   CGPointMake 0  self scrollView contentSize height - self scrollView bounds size height   self scrollView contentInset bottom    self scrollView setContentOffset bottomOffset animated YES     It takes care of the bottom inset as well  in case you re using that to adjust your scroll view when the keyboard is visible

It looks like all of the answers here didn t take the safe area into consideration  Since iOS 11  iPhone X had a safe area introduced  This may affect the scrollView s contentInset   For iOS 11 and above  to properly scroll to the bottom with the content inset included  You should use adjustedContentInset instead of contentInset  Check this code    Swift    let bottomOffset   CGPoint x  0  y  scrollView contentSize height - scrollView bounds height   scrollView adjustedContentInset bottom  scrollView setContentOffset bottomOffset  animated  true     Objective-C   CGPoint bottomOffset   CGPointMake 0  self scrollView contentSize height - self scrollView bounds size height   self scrollView adjustedContentInset bottom    self scrollView setContentOffset bottomOffset animated YES      Swift extension  this keeps the original contentOffset x     extension UIScrollView       func scrollsToBottom animated  Bool            let bottomOffset   CGPoint x  contentOffset x                                     y  contentSize height - bounds height   adjustedContentInset bottom          setContentOffset bottomOffset  animated  animated            References    adjustedContentInset

Category to the rescue   Add this to a shared utility header somewhere    interface UIScrollView  ScrollToBottom  -  void scrollToBottomAnimated  BOOL animated   end   And then to that utility implementation    implementation UIScrollView ScrollToBottom  -  void scrollToBottomAnimated  BOOL animated        CGPoint bottomOffset   CGPointMake 0  self contentSize height - self bounds size height         self setContentOffset bottomOffset animated animated      end   Then Implement it wherever you like  for instance     myWebView scrollView  scrollToBottomAnimated YES

A good way to ensure the bottom of your content is visible is to use the formula   contentOffsetY   MIN 0  contentHeight - boundsHeight    This ensures the bottom edge of your content is always at or above the bottom edge of the view  The MIN 0       is required because UITableView  and probably UIScrollView  ensures contentOffsetY  gt   0 when the user tries to scroll by visibly snapping contentOffsetY   0  This looks pretty weird to the user   The code to implement this is   UIScrollView scrollView        CGSize contentSize   scrollView contentSize  CGSize boundsSize   scrollView bounds size  if  contentSize height  gt  boundsSize height        CGPoint contentOffset   scrollView contentOffset      contentOffset y   contentSize height - boundsSize height       scrollView setContentOffset contentOffset animated YES

While Matt solution seems correct to me you need to take in account also the collection view inset if there is one that has been set-up   The adapted code will be   CGSize csz   sv contentSize  CGSize bsz   sv bounds size  NSInteger bottomInset   sv contentInset bottom  if  sv contentOffset y   bsz height   bottomInset  gt  csz height         sv setContentOffset CGPointMake sv contentOffset x                                        csz height - bsz height   bottomInset                   animated YES

I found that contentSize doesn t really reflect the actual size of the text  so when trying to scroll to the bottom  it will be a little bit off  The best way to determine the actual content size is actually to use the NSLayoutManager s usedRectForTextContainer  method   UITextView  textView  CGSize textSize    textView layoutManager usedRectForTextContainer textView textContainer  size    To determine how much text actually is shown in the UITextView  you can calculate it by subtracting the text container insets from the frame height   UITextView  textView  UIEdgeInsets textInsets   textView textContainerInset  CGFloat textViewHeight   textView frame size height - textInsets top - textInsets bottom    Then it becomes easy to scroll      if you want scroll animation  use contentOffset UITextView  textView  textView contentOffset   CGPointMake textView contentOffset x  textSize - textViewHeight       if you don t want scroll animation CGRect scrollBounds   textView bounds  scrollBounds origin   CGPointMake textView contentOffset x  textSize - textViewHeight   textView bounds   scrollBounds    Some numbers for reference on what the different sizes represent for an empty UITextView   textView frame size    width 246  height 50  textSize    width 10  height 16 701999999999998  textView contentSize    width 246  height 33  textView textContainerInset    top 8  left 0  bottom 8  right 0
