Can my Ultra watch measure ambient room temperature? Lots of forums suggest two sensors, one on front the other on back that can measure and track body temperature and water temp while diving. Can the watch measure the ambient temperature? I am in a room where the thermostat has failed and I am trying to determine the room temperature. Is there an app for that? LMK, thank you!
AFAIK, the watch is designed to only measure your wrist temperature while you sleep:
Track your nightly wrist temperature changes with Apple Watch - Apple Support
Apple Watch Series 8 and Apple Watch Ultra have 2 temperature sensors—one on the back crystal, near your skin, and another just under the display. While you sleep, Apple Watch samples your temperature every five seconds. This design improves accuracy by reducing bias from the outside environment.

Feel free to let Apple know this is a feature you'd like to see in a future release. You can use this link --> Feedback - Watch - Apple
Really? I mean, the watch has two built-in temperature sensors, there must be an app or in such case, a hack to display what the sensor just under the display is measuring.
Too much hardware for body temperature and certainly sub-utilized if you can't have it display room (or outdoor) temperature other than what Weather at Apple estimates.
