Google Nest Hub (2nd) - I want to display my calender with a weekly view. How do I get it to work?

I have a Google Nest Hub (2nd gen) and Im searching for the settings that displays my calender with a weekly view. Is there anyone that can help me with this? 😊

- I have a family calendar. 
- It works fine with the WiFi.
- The phone is linked to the device.
- It is setup to provide personal results.
- The voicematch is all correct. 

I have read the information in the link below but it is not clear how to do it. It says the following information: "Step 4. Ask for event information. Note: Google Nest displays only support daily and weekly views of your calendar. Nest Hub and Nest Hub Max will also display all-day events when prompted.". So how do I do? Which commando should I use?

Link to the support article: Get calendar and event information

I will also leave some feedback to you about the displays of the calender. I really hope there will be a feature done that allows you to see the calender permanently.

Hi EllenD,

 

Thanks for posting in the Community. 

 

After a series of test on our Google Nest display, we have confirmed that you can only get 2 calendar events at a time on its display. I know its pretty confusing but when you have multiple calendar events on your calendar, it will look like it will only display 2 events. 

 

Hope this info helped.

 

Best,

Hi! 
Im not following. I feel that the information you have provided is not the answer to my question.

If I have four events for the day in my Google calendar and If I ask my Google Nest to show my calendar it tells me that I have four events but it can only display three of them.  What do you meen by that the calender only displays two events?

Any how... This is not my question. I want to now how my Google Nest can show me the weekly view of the calendar. Its very strange if its not possible when its in the Google support settings for the calender. Look at the link that I have attached before. 

 

Best regards!

Hi EllenD,

 

Sorry for the confusion. We'l go ahead and investigate this further. Meanwhile, could you please provide a photo of what is showing on your calendar events on the Google Nest display? Make sure not to put any personal info while taking a photo of your calendar.

Hi Princess,

Thank you for helping me with this and investigate it further. I have been taking a photo at my Google Nest Hub when Im asking "Show my calendar" and also how it looks when it displays my afternoon. I did also take a photo of my Google Calendar just too show you how it looks with all my event. 

So the question is how do I do to display my calendar with a weekly view insteed of a daily view?

 

I have some problem when I try to upload a photo. I get the signal "You do not have permission to upload images." Do I have to do something special? Is it possible to upload a picture from my desk?

Best regards,
Ellen

Hi,

Sorry for a late answer. Look at my post above.

Best regards,

Like everyone else is been asking for years now, we just want to see https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/r
we dont need it to talk to us, we dont need it to list events, we just want to SEE the WEEK.
your support documentation even says it can, but it cannot https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7029002
Google Nest displays only support daily and weekly views of your calendar. Nest Hub and Nest Hub Max will also display all-day events when prompted.

OP I had to get a dak board subscription and make my own calendar not quite what I wanted, but best I could do. The hubs are just smart speakers with touch screen controls. The rest of the functionality is embarrassingly bad and googles been told for years how to make it so people will utilize it.

Thank you for answer and for your support. It seems that you are as frustrated as I am. I really hope that Google do something about this. Its also very strange that the information at the Google Support website says that its possible to display the calender with a weekly view, but its not...
