Weatherback is a very useful application, but it is not the only one of its kind. Another very interesting option is rain paper, which is mainly dedicated to rain simulation. Although a priori it sounds like it offers fewer options, the truth is that it makes up for it by being more configurable. In addition, it also offers the possibility of changing your wallpaper under stipulated periods. Thus, you can have a new wallpaper every 24 hours, or always keep the rain mode activated if you like. You can also go guarding the wallpapers that are synchronized in case you like them a lot and want to use them again. You can limit the synchronization just by Wifi and also avoid wasting data uselessly.

So, if it's raining outside, it might also be raining in your background; if it's getting dark, the scene might darken with warmer tones, or stars might appear in the sky.
Some of these functions are integrated directly into the advanced customization menus (such as the sections for Labs or smart funds) and allow you to decide whether the dynamic fund will be applied only to the lock screen, only to desk or both at the same time. Although in many cases they only work with images from your gallery and not with AI-generated backgrounds, they already show the potential of having a Fully interactive background with weather without installing additional applications.
If you use other systems like iOS, you can also play with background categories like Climate and AstronomyLive Photos, or collections that change throughout the day, are also available, along with the ability to schedule automatic photo rotations every hour or every day.
