Bubble’s Chat Feature Finally Works (Reverse Scroll), or does it?

Bubble.io has finally added a reverse scrolling option for repeating groups, aiming to make chat-style interfaces like WhatsApp, Slack, or ChatGPT easier to build. In this video, we test how the new reverse scroll direction actually behaves in real Bubble apps, explore its fixed-height container limitation, and discuss why it still falls short for truly responsive chat UIs. If you’re building chatGPT-style clones, AI assistants, or any chat-based no-code web app, this breakdown shows what works, what doesn’t, and what to watch out for.

Meet Matt 👋

I discovered Bubble in 2017 while building WordPress sites and immediately saw its potential. After 7+ years of building apps, coaching hundreds of founders, and creating 500+ tutorials watched over 1.3 million times, I've seen every Bubble mistake (and made most of them myself).

What sets my teaching apart? I don't just show you how to build, I show you how to build smart. My students have launched real SaaS products, sold apps for profit, and avoided months of costly mistakes. I'm here to get you unstuck fast and building with confidence.
