Viewers can check the information without installing an app or signing in, using their TV and remote control.
The dashboard also includes nearby festivals, traffic restrictions, recommended YouTube content, Wi-Fi details and membership offers.
The update is meant to put everyday information in one place when customers turn on the TV.
It will roll out gradually to UHD3 and newer set-top boxes, and viewers who prefer the old home screen can switch back in settings.
