Hi, I do like it so far and it seems to be freakishly accurate. There were nights that I felt I slept enough hours, only to feel groggy and the app would show me that my sleep was not as restful (too much movement, not enough rem, that sort of thing) Originally I wanted it for sleep tracking, and while the data is rich if that is what you want to track, what I found useful is when it tells me that I should take it easy that day. I've been trying to exercise consistently, and if I don't get enough recovery, Oura detects that and tells me to ease off. Every time I ignored that warning, I could feel it during my workout that I don't have the energy to complete it. I have the Apple Watch and during a bike session when I ignored the warning, I could see my average HR was about 6-7 beats higher and I was really struggling. I got an email from them that in June the app will be updated to be able to better track exercise. I'll actually paste it below. One thing to note is that if you are doing weight training to remove it from your finger. I find that it kind of puts too much pressure on my finger and it kind of hurts. Here's Oura's update: ----- Dear Oura Member, Today, we are excited to share an update with you about upcoming Oura features: Workout Heart Rate, Blood Oxygen (SpO2) Sensing, and an enhanced Sleep Staging algorithm. We’re happy to announce that Workout Heart Rate tracking for running, cycling, and walking will be released in June 2022, with more workouts to be added throughout the year. We know this feature has been important to our community, and we’re eager to deliver a compelling, high quality experience very soon. Ensuring Workout Heart Rate meets our high standards and works well across a range of physical factors, environments, temperatures, and activities has been of utmost importance, and we’re happy to report that our science and technology teams are now in the final stages of development and testing. Your heart rate is a key indicator of workout intensity, and Oura’s insights not only help you understand how hard you’ve pushed yourself, but also the relationship between your Readiness Score and workout heart rate. When it comes to sleep, we’re proud that Oura delivers one of the most comprehensive and accurate data sets of any consumer wearable on the market, and continuing to build on this strong foundation is a priority for Oura. For this reason, we’ve been hard at work developing our Blood Oxygen sensing feature. Understanding variations in your overnight blood oxygen level, a measure of how well your body circulates and absorbs oxygen, will help you get an even more enhanced read on the quality of your nightly rest. Today, we are happy to update you that Blood Oxygen sensing will be available this summer. And finally, furthering our commitment to deliver the best sleep tracking experience, we’ll also be launching an update to our Sleep Staging algorithm this autumn. We hope this update is a helpful glimpse into the roadmap ahead. We are committed to continuing to add enhancements and innovations to your experience and more value to your membership. Thank you for being a part of our community and making Oura a part of your health and wellness journey. In good health, The Oura team

Hello, how are you liking the ring so far? I’m trying to see if I should get one. I’ve heard Apple is coming out with a ring. Do you still recommend it? TIA

I'm still loving it. I've been using it religiously since I got it. I find that it does a good job with the sleep analysis, and, at least for me, when that sleep score is down and the hrv is getting high, it is a good predictor that I'm probably getting sick. I haven't heard of Apple coming out with a ring, and if they do, that would be a long time away. A ring for Apple would probably eat into their watch sales, so I can't see a business value for them. I could be wrong. Oh, and as a company Oura is great. My ring battery life was getting bad about 2 months ago (almost 2 years of use) where it wouldn't hold a charge for a full day. I contacted them asking if there is something I could do like maybe get a discount for a new one as an existing customer, and no questions asked sent me a replacement for free, which was unexpected. I have no relationship with them btw. I doubt they even know this video exists lol.

Just wondering but do you have to sign up the trial membership?

No, you don't have to. Without the membership, you can still view your scores, but that is about it.. The membership provides extra analytics for those wanting to dive deeper into the data.

Hi, I need help, because Oura has NO phone tech support. I have a Samsung Galaxy 21 and the app will not connect to my new ring. I cant pair my ring because i get an error that says i need the app? any advice?

Ugh, unfortunately Marisa they only do the online help contact, and that is a bit frustrating. Online chat hours would have been nice at a minimum. In the early days of using it with an iPhone I had a few issues connecting the ring with the phone (it would randomly stop connecting to the app similar to your issue), and the way I got around it was to completely delete the app from my phone and download again from the App Store and that got it working again. I found some troubleshooting steps with a way to reset the ring and clear the phone that might help you here: support.ouraring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025592013-Troubleshooting-Connection-Issues Try that and if that doesn't work do contact them. At least when I contacted them they did respond quickly, but of course something that could have been solved with a quick phone call can take days of back and forth, sigh. Here's the help link in case you don't have it: support.ouraring.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Good jokes man

does the wifi on your phone need to be turned on

Just bluetooth in order for the ring data to sync up with the app. The ring has enough memory to store about 7 days worth of data. Network connection is needed if you want to sync up the data to view on the web portal, firmware updates, etc. Otherwise internet is not required (only exception might be initial setup)
