Here’s how you can use Body Temperature measurement feature on Pixel 8 devices outside the USA 

Posted on

Google has recently rolled out a new update for the Pixel Thermometer app which brings the the most useful feature to Pixel 8 devices. However, the feature is exclusive as Google has only received approval to use it in the US, but here’s a way by which you can use the Body Temperature measurement feature on Pixel devices outside the USA.

As per the input of Mishal Rahman, users outside the USA, can forcefully enable the Body Temperature measurement feature on their Google Pixel 8 devices, using the same method that is used to enable VoLTE/VoWiFi in unsupported regions. 

A user named @Za_Raczke has found a quick app that lets you change the ISO country code read by the app to whatever you want. So you just grant the app shell-level privileges using Shizuku so it can call the TelephonyManager APIs and then use the app to set the country code to “us”, unlocking the feature in the Thermometer app.

You know what’s the best part, it will continue even if you reset the country code as long as you don’t wipe the data of the app or uninstall it. Additionally, you don’t even need root access to enable this, just Shizuku enabled. However, users can download the APK and can measure their body temperature anytime and anywhere.
