I actually prefer Android's current overscroll effect.


Yup. I always found the rubber banding to be kind of an odd way to indicate the end of a scrolling area. The problem is that instead of something indicating unambiguously the end of a view, the movement continues to happen momentarily as if there was more to come and only gradually stops. Users end up not knowing if they botched their finger gesture or if they are actually at a boundary. Even as an experienced user, I sometimes retry pulling a few times to confirm there's nothing more.


This is exactly what I dislike about it. Ironically, it makes it more difficult to realize there is no more content.
