Can I see TV programming information a few days in advance?

Is there a way to change the date in the programming guide using the android box and voice remote?

I would like to view what is on a certain channel a few days from today. Might be worth recording!

Or should I ask for another remote or box?

I think you can skip ahead a full day at a time by using the FF () button. I use a harmony remote and this works on it.

Hey there @hhuggles. Thanks for reaching out to the Bell Community.

You can scroll to the right within the Fibe TV guide to see upcoming shows over the following days/week.

Let the Community know if you have any other questions.

I have not had the chance yet to visit my 95 yr old neighbor whom has the voice remote but I can confirm that fast-forward does advance the date on the non android boxes.

How can i move to another day on the guide without scrolling through the guide to that day?

We can FF or FB if long-peas the buttons on the Voice Remote.

wdym by “the non android boxes”? The 5662 box with a physical hard drive?

You can also buy a Bluetooth Slim, so you only need to press the FF/FB buttons once to flip 24h all at once. Other perks brought by those two diminished buttons also work under the new box, but the settings under “support” sec probably won’t be able to work again. Or you can use the Google Assistant.

Fibe TV's Guide --  how can I access TV programming information for a couple days in advance or for next week using the Guide?

On the Arris Android box, press and HOLD the Skip/FF button on the slim remote.  The guide will move forward 24hrs and will continue to move forward as long as you hold the FF button.

Once you're at the day, scroll back/forward/up/down as usual.

We need a precise timing when pressing the button to land on the 24h mark, right?

I recently started FibeTV. How do you advance the guide daily, example skip from Tuesday listings to Saturday listings.

The method you mention worked with my older tv box but doesn’t with the new Arris VIP 7802 recently installed.

How do you advance the guide daily? Laborious to advance one time slot at a time. The FibeTV app allows you to move daily but I haven’t been able to find this daily advance technique for the guide associated with the new Arris VIP 7802

Later I checked. His method actually works under 7802. You need to long press the button to advance one day each time.
