Agreed. I'd really like to just be able to look at part of two consecutive months at the same time. Seems silly to have the same visualization constraints as a real calendar that crossing from the 31st of current month to 12th of next month means going back and forth a few times.

Love google calendar for the cloud, sharing and ability to email myself custom reminders but the UI on the web is pretty minimal. I tried a couple different calendar apps and found fantastical by flexbits.com to have the best UI/functionality for me on iPhone.



You can set your custom (fourth) view to "4 Weeks", which does the trick for me.


Honest question: how does "4 weeks" fix it ? You still can't view one week in advance and one week after the start of each month.


Do you really mean 'and'?

I have my custom view set to 3 weeks - but the same principle - it shows me from today (or rather, the Monday of the week that today is part of) through to Monday 3 weeks away. It cares not a jot for where I am within the month. Setting the custom view to any other numbers of weeks will doubtless provide the same 'sliding x-week window' view.


It doesn't give a sliding x-week window, though.

It gives an x week window offset by n*x weeks.

So you can see now through 3 weeks, and 3 weeks through 6 weeks. But I want to see 3-4 weeks of window and slide by one week!


Workaround: Click a day in the small calendar and then click the 4 Weeks button.


You can also click-and-drag within the small calendar to select date range - two and three weeks also work.


Hey, thanks! I get mad at this same issue at least twice a week.


Thanks!
