In one of the most recent updates (Dec 2024) the weather app background color changed from black to a super bright neon blue. I detest it! But cannot find any way to change it back to black. Does anyone know how? I have a galaxy watch 5 and a Fold 7. 

i honestly dont know what ui person in the samsung team decided mandating a bright color like that changed from a neutral color was a good idea but they need to go back to school to relearn user experience concepts.

You cannot change the color. It's actually appears to be a dynamic tile, and the background changes with day/night. I haven't had rain yet, so I do not know if it reflects raindrops. I did notice it goes grey with fog or overcast.

Mine must be broken then because it stays neon blue all the time. Im currently sitting in a rain storm and its bright blue. I wish they wouldnt. Or at least give us the option to switch it off.

I'll have to look again tonight but most nights it changes to a muted grey or blue. It's been nothing but sunshine here since I got the new watch. Frankly, I don't really often look at the weather tile, because I have the weather complication on my watch face, so I can see the temp from there. It's my third tile, so I do pass it on my way to something else - thinking of moving it to last, or just removing it altogether, since if I want the detailed report, I just tap the complication. You might consider a different watch face to add the complication and then remove the weather tile.

Here we go, it's after dark now, and this is the face of my weather tile:  Note the moon icon, and the color changed to dark blue. This is the watch 7 with OneUI 6.0.  Same with my Watch 4, running OneUI6.0
