This is a tricky one. Not sure we can land a proper solution. We'll investigate a bit. When the sticky subheaders have the same background color as the list, it's easy to subtract some pixels to avoid it covering te scrollbar. But doing that when the subheader has another background color makes it look really bad.

Hi, Thanks for the response!

Fortunately in my case, I've worked around it by adding some right padding to the List. I'm not sure why iOS scrollbars don't play well with sticky items, it looks fine on Android.

@functoria your solution works well when subheaders have the same background as the list scrolling container, but it'd be problematic if subheaders have a different background, a bottom border, etc.
