  • Your Google Pixel's hidden thermometer can measure object and body temperatures
    January 11, 2026, 1:56 AM EST. Android users with Pixel 8 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, Pixel 10 Pro, or Pixel 10 Pro XL may have a hidden tool: a built-in temperature sensor in the camera bar. The pre-installed Thermometer app uses the phone's infrared sensor to read object temperature and, with a guided setup, body temperature readings as well. The feature is not a medical device, but it offers quick checks when a dedicated thermometer isn't handy. The article walks through enabling permissions, selecting Object or Body temperature, and the step-by-step process: hold the sensor about two inches from the target, tap to measure, and move from forehead to temple within four seconds. For troubleshooting, ensure the app has camera and photo permissions.
