Android 13 beta and its emerging troubles have once again become a hot topic of discussion among users. As per the input revealings, the latest Android 13 beta is now creating Wallpaper colors and styles issues.
Recently, a Pixel 6 Pro user discovered that the newest Android 13 Beta update is consistently making some issues with the wallpaper system. The user reports that after installing the beta iteration, the wallpaper colors and styles keep changing.
Notably, Android 13 has already skipped the “lock in” wallpapers ability for some reason. And as of now, the latest Android 13 beta continues to change wallpaper colors and styles every time the phone sleeps.
The user further explains that before Android 13, he was able to set the wallpaper colors accordingly. These colors stand out on the phone till the user itself makes an effort to change them. However, the Android 13 beta has welcomed the respective wallpaper issue on his handset.
Aside from the major issue, the user has also dragged our attention to Android 12. Even so, Android 12 was the first operating system to introduce Material You, the issue never appeared with its beta or the stable version.
It’s not the wallpaper, but the colors and styles
To be specific, the user mentions that it’s not the wallpaper, but the icons and screen texts on the home screen that are changing frequently. Consequently, it has become a matter of annoyance more than worry.
On the flip side, it become a topic of confusion. Many users believe that this could be the benefit of Material You which has been revamped with Android 13. Although, the affected person denies the statements.
To clear the confusion, the user further explains that with Android 13, the color changes and sets to the first color scheme accordingly. This usually happens after restarting the device. But, here the issue is occurring throughout the day.
Besides, the wallpaper and lock screen image remains the same. Yet, the color resets to the first color scheme. 
Same issue for the last three months!
It’s worth mentioning that three months ago, a user described a similar issue with Android 13 Beta 1. Eventually, the wallpaper colors reset and often shift between light and dark modes. It seems like, the issue didn’t get repaired since then.
Probably, the bug could be in the Material You system. After Android 12, the wallpaper and other color-changing scenarios have been locked in the Material You feature. While the addition has been quite attractive in the initial days, looks like it has become a huge headache for users at present. However, as the user has denied the Material You concept, we cannot trigger this feature.
Many issues with Android 13 Beta!
Up to this point, we come across several Android 13 beta issues that have surrounded Pixel device owners. The recent one was the app switcher bug that resulted in the abnormal working or freezing of the apps.
While users continue to face some or the other issue with the latest beta rollout, Google hasn’t taken any step in this aspect. Perhaps, the company would be working on eliminating these issues from the stable version.
Android 13 beta has shown various bugs before the stable upgrade. Even after several fixes and improvements in the changelog, the firmware continues to create problems for users. We hope that we will get a bug-free and more reliant system in the upcoming stable build.
