Sticky header

Also called: Sticky section header

A heading that stays fixed once scrolling brings it to the top of the screen.

Scroll up and down to see each heading stay at the top until the next replaces it.

Often confused with

• Parallax: A technique that moves near and far layers at different speeds rather than fixing a heading in place
• Tab bar: A navigation bar fixed at the bottom rather than a heading that sticks to the top as content scrolls
