I have a form which has around 12/13 fields. I used a Scrollview
inside a constraint layout. Below is the hierarchy of the XML layout. The problem is, it doesn't scroll to the bottom instead scrolls only to the first initial 10 views. The last 3 fields gets hidden as the view does not scroll any further.
PARENT LAYOUT
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/activity_register"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:orientation="vertical">
<!-- Textview and a button -->
<ScrollView
android:id="@+id/scrollView"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:overScrollMode="never"
android:scrollbars="none"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@+id/view"

tools:layout_constraintRight_creator="1"
tools:layout_constraintTop_creator="1"

<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:id="@+id/constraintLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<!-- Child Views (12/13 views of the fields)-->
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
</ScrollView>
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
This layout works in my app. The trick is to set these two attributes in ScrollView: android:layout_height="0dp" app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
The simplified layout from my app:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

android:layout_width="0dp"

app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<ScrollView
