Display dates for a long period on the graph
User Experience Asked by Nick Cipher on October 31, 2021
I’m working on an app where I need to show a graphs for different period of time. The problem is that when I’m picking long periods like a 5 or 6 months, the labels for days are all squished together and it’s impossible to read them. How will it be better, but still informative to show the period of time on X axis instead of showing every day?
So I need to make sure that user will understand what are the dates shown.

Maybe it would be useful if you take a look at how Google Analytics solved this kind of problem: the individual days only show up if you hover your mouse directly over the data points. Meanwhile, your x-axis will now only show the name of the months.
