Please note that this calendar interface isn't available in America, Brazil and some other countries... for some reason. I have no idea why Amazon haven't rolled this out to everyone, but right now I can see this (based in the UK) but many watchers in America can't.

Not quite correct. I have a gen1 Show8 and it works just like yours. However, my gen 2's all simply display list mode with no ability to change it.

Thank you! Nothing about that interface is as irritating as the fact I was looking for a video like this for over a year, and no amount of searching was revealing this existed. And, those irritating aspects of the calendar views are still far better than the worthless interface on Google's alternative hubs. Even in stores with those on display you can't see what you've shown, because the "demo" mode precludes it.

Hello, it is very similar yes, however there are some minor differences (especially with the calendar features, that vary on the actual Echo Shows as well).

Hi, I'm having a problem that I didn't have before with the Echo Show 8 calendar until a while ago it showed me the calendar only as LIST which is the most comfortable way to see what one has in the calendar but since a few weeks ago when I ask him what I have on the calendar, he shows it to me as 3-DAY and the truth is that I am not interested in seeing it that way even the options LIST 3-DAY MONTH appears and I mark LIST but it is not the default and it always returns to 3-DAY . I have looked for how to put the calendar in LIST but so far I have not had any luck, can you help me? thanks in advance

Hi, that's an odd problem. To be honest it sounds like a software bug, especially if you have the 3 options but clicking LIST doesn't work properly. Maybe try turning the Echo Show off and back on again (as always with technology lol!) but if that doesn't work, hopefully it is something that Amazon will fix very soon in a software update?

Hello I'm from Brazil! My Echo Show 2nd Gen. does not display the monthly calendar, only events. Any tips?
@SmartHomePoint

Hello! 🙂 Yes I wish I could go back and edit videos, but I can't. Basically since publishing the video, it has emerged that only specific Echo Shows (e.g. the 1st gen ones) - in certain countries (e.g. the UK) have the monthly calendar option. Some other Echo Shows then either offer the "3 day" mode, or the list (events) mode. Basically Amazon have not been consistent with this feature - it varies per model and per country.

Unfortunately the month view apparently isn't available in all countries - including America. 😣 So that'd probably be why. Hopefully they roll out this feature to everyone soon though.

Hi mate, the only setting I'm aware of is Settings - Home Content, and then make sure that 'Calendar Events' is selected. Beyond that, I don't think there's any further control of the calendar display.

Sorry to hear that - do you simply not have the option? Or is it the case that it doesn't work even when it is enabled? It does cycle through different cards, so you won't see the calendar entries all the time, but I wonder if there's country specific features too (like how America apparently doesn't have the monthly view).
