Shawnese, Nothing in your settings is going to explain this, and that is why checking them all came up empty. The calendar is not working out which date to show you. It is putting you back on the last date you were looking at. Position is something the app remembers, not a preference it offers, so there is no switch for it anywhere.
What makes it feel constant is that going into an app is usually not the same as starting it. If Google Calendar is still sitting in the background, opening it resumes it, and resuming puts you back exactly where you left off, right down to the date. Only a fresh start has any reason to land on today. So some months ago you scrolled back to find something, and it has been handing you that spot ever since. The test is free and it names no setting. Close Google Calendar out of the app switcher so it has to start over, then open it. If it comes up on today, nothing is broken, and what you have been doing all along is resuming it rather than opening it. If it still comes up months back after a genuine fresh start, that is a different problem. It means the app is holding on to a saved state it should have let go of. Your events live in your Google account and not on the phone, so removing the app and putting it back costs you a sign in and nothing else. Which one does it do after a fresh start, today or the old date?
