For API lower than 26 we can change the style of tooltips by setting the following attributes in our theme:

• tooltipStyle
• tooltipForegroundColor
• tooltipFrameBackground

However on API 26 and newer we are unable to change the default look of this component, because you don't want to add a backport for TooltipCompat.setTooltipText() (https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/240060685).

Therefore how can we change the default styling of the Tooltip?

It should be available according to your Material style guidelines: https://m2.material.io/components/tooltips#theming
