I have used @cinder92 method and i have extra space below, my html code. Anyone had similar problem ?

<WebViewAutoHeight 
useWebKit={true} 
 javaScriptEnabled={true} 
domStorageEnabled={true} 
startInLoadingState={true} 
originWhitelist={['*']} 
style={styles.contentStyles}  
source={{html: this.props.InformationContent}}>
</WebViewAutoHeight>

  contentStyles:{
      paddingBottom: 20,
      width: "100%",
  }

I can confirm whitespaces. Still haven't found solution. Any idea?
@sebastianor did you solve it?

I found something. Try to add <meta name='viewport' content='initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0'> it works for me
