Due to this change, make sure to double check the layout parameters of your item views: previously ignored layout parameters (such as MATCH_PARENT in the scroll direction) will now be fully respected.
In your item layout you have to change:
android:layout_height="match_parent"
with
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

>With the release **23.2.0** there is an exciting new feature to the LayoutManager API: **auto-measurement**! This allows a `RecyclerView` to size itself based on the size of its contents. This means that previously unavailable scenarios, such as using **WRAP_CONTENT** for a dimension of the RecyclerView, are now possible. You’ll find all built in LayoutManagers now support auto-measurement.
Due to this change, **make sure to double check the layout parameters** of your item views: **previously ignored layout parameters** (such as **MATCH_PARENT** in the scroll direction) will **now be fully respected**.
