Currently, when I use the weekly Calendar View (either in the board or in a dashboard), it always reopens on the last viewed week – even if that was in the past. This requires me to manually click “Today” every time I return to the calendar, which is frustrating when I just want to quickly see the current week.
What are you trying to achieve
I would like the Calendar View (especially in weekly view) to automatically scroll or focus on the current week or today’s date when I open it. This would save time and reduce confusion when switching between views or revisiting the board/dashboard after a few days.
As a user who relies heavily on Calendar View for daily and weekly planning, it’s easy to lose track if the calendar stays stuck on a past week. For team coordination, this causes extra steps and sometimes missed items if someone forgets to move the view manually. A simple auto-focus on the current week would make the experience much smoother and intuitive.
Hi @jure - if you’re open to trying out apps, our new Smart Week Number app might make things a bit easier. It automatically detects the current week, so you can quickly highlight or filter items for “This Week.” You can even set up automations every Monday to help keep your board focused, super handy for staying on track with planning.
It also supports custom fiscal calendars if you use a different week system internally, plus a bunch of other smart features. And with flexible automation recipes, it’s easy to tailor it to your workflow.
Hello @jure,
This is a valid UX concern—weekly Calendar View should auto-focus on the current week to avoid missed items and extra clicks. A simple enhancement like defaulting to “Today” on load would streamline planning and improve team coordination. Definitely worth submitting as a feature request to the platform’s product team.
If you’re open to using marketplace apps, you can try Calendar Plus (it’s got a free version). It remembers which view you were looking at, and remembers for up to 12 hours which day/week/month/year you were looking at. So typically it resets overnight, and definitely over the weekend. You can try all features at no cost for 14 days, and it falls back to the free version after that.
