When Samsung announced the Samsung Galaxy S24 series earlier this year, the big bet wasn’t on the hardware, but on the software they included. Artificial intelligence was the central axis many new features. Most of them were widely publicized, like Circle To Search, which is now starting to come to Google’s mobile phones, but others were rather hidden.
One of them is a function that allows the mobile lock screen to display the weather in the area we are in without having to choose a specific wallpaper. What the AI does is create a graphics layer that changes the aesthetic of the background in question. In our example, we used a photo we took in San Francisco during the trip to showcase these mobiles.

Normally it appears as we presented it, but When there are specific weather events outside, for example rain, the interface is updated and show this rain on your lock screen. The same thing happens in other cases, such as snow.
How to enable weather AI
To activate this function, you must go to the Settings from the mobile, then to Advanced Features and there, activate a function called Photographic background. The system itself explains what it is and what type of photos work better than others. For example, it is better to post photos of the exterior than the interior. Additionally, the representation of weather events is not always instantaneous.
To choose that this function is displayed in addition to this parameter, you must go to the Wallpapers optionaccessible by keeping the screen pressed on an empty area of the desktop, then selecting Wallpaper and style. A new function will have appeared in Change Wallpaper.
His name is Photo environment and you need to enter to select the specific image you want to use as your lock screen wallpaper. Once selected, you can customize the lock screen like any other image, and when you activate it, everything will be active.
All we have to do now is monitor it to see if It is updated when specific weather events occur, such as rain or snow. Samsung itself says there are currently only a few, although he does not specify which ones. Hopefully, little by little this function will even be able to display the ambient light, whether the day is cloudy or not, whether it is dusk or sunset, etc. It’s like logic, This feature is only available on models equipped with Samsung Galaxy AI..
