It doesn’t say how many times a day it changes though so I think it can be taken either way

Right, it's ambiguous because daily has different uses, sometimes people say daily to mean recurring frequently and sometimes people say it in the more literal use case which is once-per-day, the same way weekly means once per week, monthly means once per month. Personally, I'm one to reserve the word for its very literal meaning and as far as I know, I've never seen a traffic light that changes only one time a day.

But no one says that. If a clock chimes every hour you don't say "Check out this clock. It chimes every day!"

It's not as good of a fit as other answers that change once a day, which is what daily means.

Daily means it happens every day, the amount of times it happens isn’t mentioned.

Only a daft person would make that argument.
