We show that the manifold heat semigroup $Q_t = e^{t\Delta}$ can be approximated directly by iterating the graph transition matrix $P$, under only low regularity assumptions on the test function $f$, including the case $f \in L^\infty$. We bound $\| P^n f - Q_t f \|$ in $\infty$-norm, with the operator application to $f$ properly
