In Netflix's Android app, there is a WebView that covers almost the entire app's area. When you drag a row left to right, it will scroll only that row, and do so using nice inertial scrolling. If you drag up and down, it will scroll the whole page up and down.

I've managed to duplicate this functionality on iOS (in a uiWebView as well as in Safari proper), but not on Android. On Android devices, anything I do is either painfully slow to scroll, or you have to be very careful scrolling vertically to start by touching in the background area between rows. Neither of which are acceptable. Obviously, I don't want to do the scrolling animation in javascript, as that will be too slow.

I know Netflix does it using a WebView, so....what is the trick they are using?

I have tried using the css properties (for the row div):

```
overflow-y: hidden;
-webkit-overflow-scrolling-x: touch

```

to no avail.
