Apple watch not displaying wrist temperature in health app
Why is my apple watch recording my wrist temperature but not displaying the temperatures in the health app? I see the data being recorded.

Hi LondonMay!
The Apple Watch does not display absolute core body temperature (like a traditional thermometer). Instead it shows deviations (e.g., +0.5F or -0.2F) from your personal norm. To establish that norm, you must wear your watch to bed with Sleep Focus turned on for at least 5 nights.
If it has already been more than 5 nights and still isn’t populating that graph, ensure that these settings are enabled.
Wrist Detection must be turned on (Watch app on iPhone > My Watch > Passcode > Wrist Detection).
Sleep Tracking must be actively tracking sleep (Health app on iPhone > Browse > Sleep > Full Schedule & Options > Use Apple Watch for Sleep).
Sleep Focus must be on at night when you wear the watch to bed
The information about Wrist Temperature can be found in the (Health app on iPhone > Search > Body Measurements > Wrist Temperature).
Let me know if you need anything else!
