    Hello Anders,

    Changing the DayView "ALL-DAY" label text is currently not exposed in Xamarin.Forms. If you would like to see that functionality I encourage you to submit a feature request in our FeedbackPortal.

    However you can achieve that behavior by creating a custom CalendarRenderer where you will have access to the native control and you can change the label text. I'm posting simple implementation of CustomCalendarRenderer that should solve your problem:

    Android implementation:

    public class CustomCalendarRenderer : CalendarRenderer
    {
        public override bool TrySetViewMode(CalendarViewMode view, bool isAnimated)
        {
            if (view == CalendarViewMode.Day)
            {
                Control.DayView.AllDayEventsViewStyle.AllDayText = "MY Text";
            }
     
            return base.TrySetViewMode(view, isAnimated);
        }
    }


    iOS implementation:

    public class CustomCalendarRenderer : CalendarRenderer
    {
        protected override CalendarDelegate CreateCalendarDelegateOverride()
        {
            return new CustomCalendarDelegate();
        }
    }
     
    public class CustomCalendarDelegate : CalendarDelegate
    {
        public override void DidChangedViewModeFrom(TKCalendar calendar, TKCalendarViewMode previousViewMode, TKCalendarViewMode viewMode)
        {
            base.DidChangedViewModeFrom(calendar, previousViewMode, viewMode);
     
            var dayViewPresenter = calendar.Presenter as TKCalendarDayViewPresenter;
            if (dayViewPresenter == null)
            {
                return;
            }
     
            var allDayLabel = dayViewPresenter.DayView.AllDayEventsView.LabelView as UILabel;
            if (allDayLabel != null)
            {
                allDayLabel.Text = "My Text";
            }
        }
    }


    Here are a few links about how to create a custom renderer:

    I hope I've been helpful.
