Hi,
My Wife has a Samsung Galaxy A8 10" tablet.
The home screen background is light. Reading the
white letter text for various icons could be improved
it there is a way to make the background darker
such as dark gray or blue.
I went into Settings, Display and Wallpaper, but
I could not find a method to set a darker background.
If you know how, please respond.
Thank You in advance, John

I don't have a Samsung tablet, but have a Samsung phone (A51, Android
13):
Settings -> Wallpaper and style -> Change wallpapers
This shows all kinds of wallpapers. On my phone, the group of
'Featured' wallpapers sows a darkish green wallpaper. A wallpaper can be applied to the Lock screen or/and the Home screen.

I also have a Samsung although I use the Nova launcher, so when I want to change the background, I long press on the background and it gives 3
choices (desktop, lock screen & something else that I forget what it was) plus it has wallpaper scrolling & locking of the screen (which you have to unlock to change the wallpaper), and wallpaper transition effects, etc.
Looking at the menus, it also has "Settings > Wallpapers & style" and then "Change wallpapers" as described above, which I didn't actually even know about until now.
Since, for anti-fingerprinting purposes, you don't want a unique wallpaper, you're probably best with the original wallpaper that came with the phone, but for me, it's too busy so I use a flat dark black color which I used to take a photo with the phone on a table (as black as I could get it).
But now I see in the "Wallpapers & style" setting that I could set the
color, although it's confusing because they want an entire palette.
When I selected "Basic colors", the one color that is most functional isn't there, which is "Black" (which I presume has the most contrast and more importantly, I presume black uses the least amount of battery juice").
Does it?
