hi I've noticed that I can't scroll through the months when using my watch. For instance I want to look at a date in the following month but the calendar app only shows the current month. I checked on a friends watch and it is the same.

Is there a way to change this?

Thanks.

I have noticed the same issue and as far as I know, there is no way to see more than just the current month with the default calendar App.

It seems like it would be easy to allow us to scroll up and down a couple of months, but I guess they did not think it was needed.

Apple's vision of the Apple watch was that users would interact with it for 5-10 seconds. Checking next month's calendar falls under iPhone type interaction I would guess.

moronic choice apple. Hope it gets fixed. I think I can make the decision to look at my watch for 1-2 seconds more on the 28th to see what day the 2, 5, 17th of next month falls on.
absolutely amazing oversight.

Let's say you can scroll to the next calendar month.

Shouldn't you then be able to tap on a day to see details? I mean, if you can scroll through the year, it just makes sense to look at a particular day's details, right?

Okay, now tap on a day. No, not the 10th, but the 17th. Oops, you hit the 25th; go back to Month view and try again.

Or maybe just use the phone. It's got a bigger screen.
