Hey there shashikaf,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities.


We do want to make you aware that it would not be possible to take a manual temperature using an Apple Watch and the feature is designed to gather wrist temperature data while you sleep.


This information can be found in the 'Related Article' Track your nightly wrist temperature changes with Apple Watch, that was shared on this thread:


About Wrist Temperature
Your wrist temperature is a measurement related to your body's temperature taken by your Apple Watch while you're asleep. Your body temperature naturally fluctuates and can vary each night due to your diet and exercise, alcohol consumption, sleep environment, or physiological factors such as menstrual cycles and illness. After about 5 nights, your Apple Watch will determine your baseline wrist temperature and look for nightly changes to it.

Things you should know
* The temperature sensing feature is not a thermometer and cannot provide wrist temperature measurements on-demand.


We hope that's able to help.


Have a great day!
