Xiaomi: Change the Calendar App View

If your Google Calendar app on Xiaomi always opens in Month view, finding today's appointments takes extra scrolling. The default layout does not match how you actually plan your day. Switching between Schedule, Day, 3-Day, Week and Month views fixes this without touching any system settings.

Change Calendar View auf Xiaomi

The Google Calendar app that ships with newer Xiaomi phones remembers only one view at a time, and it usually falls back to Month after a restart. That happens because the app stores the last selected layout locally, not through a MIUI setting, so a system update or a cleared cache can reset it. Switching manually takes a few taps but does not stick unless you pick the view again each time you open the app.

To change the layout, open the calendar and tap the menu icon in the top-left corner. From there you can choose between Schedule, Day, 3 Days, Week and Month. Schedule works best for scanning upcoming appointments as a list, while Week and Month suit longer-term planning.

If the view still resets after closing the app, check whether Calendar has background data restrictions in your battery settings, since that can stop the app from saving your last used layout. This setting only affects Google Calendar; other calendar apps on your Xiaomi phone keep their own separate view preference.

Frequently asked questions

The Google Calendar app saves the last view locally on the device. Force-closing the app, clearing its cache, or applying a system update can reset that saved value back to Month.
