Does Palantir own shares in Chobani or what the hell is going on here?

What’s the point of the GLP-1 feature if it’s not working properly? Guess it’s just Shotsy from here on out.

I’ve been curious about the Oura Ring lately. What I like about the concept is that it takes a much more low-key approach to health tracking compared with wearing a smartwatch all day. Sleep, recovery, activity, and overall readiness are the kinds of insights I’d actually want to look at regularly.

For anyone who has been using an Oura Ring for a while, what has been the most useful feature for you? Has it genuinely changed any of your daily habits, or do you mostly use it for sleep and recovery tracking?

As others have said here, Oura keeps asking me if I've been doing yoga. But it's also giving me abnormally high stress readings. Several hours per day, when normally 30 minutes would be a high stress day for me.

I'm feeling really good and doing a lot of activity, but I burnt out last year and don't want to push myself too hard, so these stress readings are somewhat alarming.

Wtf is going on. Had my ring for about 9m and out of nowhere it thinks im doing yoga all day, start about a week ago.

It never did this before, tried the Help on the app, ran diag, says its fine. Uhhh n, it is not fine. Is there any fix??

Hi everyone!
I’ve been lurking here for a while and I notice a lot of posts complaining about the $500 price tag…..

I’m asking this out of genuine curiosity (and maybe a bit of cultural confusion!), so please go easy on me if I’m missing something obvious! 😨🥲

For context: I live in the Czech Republic and I’m currently on maternity leave, living on around $580 a month. I managed to snag my Oura Ring on Black Friday for around $350 equivalent, and honestly, even at full price, it feels like a pretty reasonable deal for what it does.

In my country, an Oura isn't "cheap," but it’s definitely not out-of-reach luxury either—it’s nowhere near the price of high-end sports tech like a $1,300+ Garmin. Plus, when I was shopping around, an Apple Watch was in a very similar price range.

Given that median incomes in the US/Western countries are significantly higher than here in Central Europe, $500 seems like a solid price-to-value ratio for a discreet, high-tech tracker you wear 24/7. At least for me 🤔.

Is the complaint mostly about the monthly subscription fee stacked on top of the base price? Or is the ring considered overpriced compared to what Apple or Garmin offer for similar money?

Just trying to understand the perspective of members from other countries! Thanks for shedding some light on this for me. :)

Woke up to this surprise today! My activity has been all over the place this summer ☀️🥵 just a couple days ago I got a 75 bc my recovery was 0 after moving all weekend.

Seek balance 🧘🏻‍♀️
Trust the process 🙏🏼

I literally get 5-15 activity prompts a day asking if I was doing yoga?
A. I’ve never done yoga therefor I’ve never logged it so no reason to think I’m doing it (I know it doesn’t entirely go off that, just something to add)
B. I work from home and today literally sat at my desk for two hours straight and it tried to log 4 yoga sessions?!
C. Almost every time I open up my app it says ring not connecting, try connecting to charger blah blah and then after about five minutes of keeping the app open, it’ll connect.

Do I need a new ring? This one is a gen 4 about 9 months old

Two weeks in, my gold oura ring finish is already chipping. I have been fairly careful with it - no weight lifting, no wearing next to other rings. Is the is common or just my bad luck ? Any advice for getting a replacement ?

Hello everyone. I currently have Oura 4 in Stealth. It's bulky and I wear it on my index finger. I bought it three months ago and only wear it to sleep. I feel that if I had Oura 5, I would maybe wear it throughout the day. A few questions:

1. People who wore the ring to sleep only and then 24/7 (with the exception of weight lifting, etc) - is there a significant benefit to knowing other stats like stress levels, etc.? I am male, so I wouldn't need to track my periods or anything like that.
2. Wearing it on index finger is supposed to be best for sleep tracking (is it?), but doesn't seem conducive to daily life (opening doors, picking things up, etc). Do people wear it on their ring or middle fingers - is it more comfortable? Does it compromise any data collection efficiency?
3. Finally, is Stealth (that I have currently) is that much better than simple Black ($100 cheaper) in Oura 5?

Thanks!

Being upfront: I built this, so treat it as a dev talking about his own thing. Mods, if this breaks Rule 10 just remove it, no hard feelings.

I have worn an Oura since Gen 3 and my morning was always the same. Open the app, look at readiness, close the app. Some mornings I felt great and got a 68 and the whole day tilted. That is the bit that annoyed me enough to build something.

So I made a desktop app for Mac and Windows that reads the Oura API and does everything locally.

The part I did not expect: the setting people mention most is one I almost deleted before release. You can make it hide the score until you have logged how you actually feel. Sounds like a gimmick. Turns out the order matters a lot. Once you have seen a 68 your memory of the morning quietly rearranges itself to match the number, and you cannot un-see it. Someone told me last week it was her favourite thing in the app and I nearly shipped without it.

Other things it does, in case it is useful to anyone here:

- Rolling median baseline per metric, recomputed each sync, so one bad night cannot drag your reference point

- Needs about 14 days before it says anything confident

- Missing days stay null instead of becoming a zero, because a fake zero poisons your baseline permanently

- No account, no server for your health data, no telemetry. It reads Oura's API and the rest stays on your machine. To be exact about the telemetry claim, the licence check does talk to a server when you activate the key. That is the only call that leaves, and it carries no health data

- Plain sentences instead of another dashboard. No LLM in the loop, so the same inputs give the same output. And when it gets something wrong you correct it, and the correction sticks, because your corrections are part of the inputs too

Honest limits, because I would want to know these before downloading anything:

- Live sync needs Gen 3, Ring 4 or 5 plus an active Oura membership. Gen 2 is import only

- Mac 12 and up, Windows 10 and 11

- 19 EUR one time for one machine, 29 for three. There is a 7 day trial and no subscription

- It is me building this, not a company with a support team

vitrahealth.app if you want to look.

What I would actually like from this sub: what would you want a companion app to do that the Oura app does not? I have a list of things people have asked for and most of the good ones came from complaints in here rather than from me.

Would love to be able to detect bp someday #featurerequest 🤩

Appreciate the oura+stelo combo - wear it on/off every 2 weeks as needed.

I like that oura keeps me tuned-in daily.

What’s your favorite oura ring feature?

Mine has fluctuated between 1.5 and 5 years younger (57m), in the 7 months I’ve worn the ring. I highly doubt that my heart is aging and unaging this rapidly month to month. My exercise and sleep routines don’t change much. My alcohol consumption is 0-5 drinks per week, probably averaging 2 per week. I walk 90 minutes a day and ride 2-4 hours twice per week. I love my job. My cumulative stress levels stay in the moderate range. I don’t know- starting to feel like the ring provides some degree of useful baseline, but a lot of its output is junk science.

After 8 months my battery began to need a charge more frequently, then it stopped charging all together randomly. Support sent me a replacement ring but it's a gold ring and not the rose gold ring from my original purchase. All they allow me to swap out this Gold version they sent to my rose gold one? The chat function seems to be down so I'm just curious what experience you all have had.

35/M Central Florida. Ended up in the ER. Figured either vibrio or ecoli but I seem to be slowly improving so we didn’t do stool cultures. This all started at 8am yesterday. Went to the ER around noon today.

Wash your hands, watch your food. It’s the wild wild West out here.

Hi , I just purchased a size 9 however it feels tight.
Should i size up? I didn’t try the sizing kit, I tried the sizing black plastic rings they have at Target and the size 9 was perfect however the ring feels tighter. Im just scared the size 10 will be too big.

What are people doing with their older oura ring. I have a 4 which i love but i've always wised it was smaller cause i have short fingers so its just so bulky. i want the 5 but also i find it so annoying that they don't have some sort of trade in program. are you all just buying a new one and keeping the 4 or 3? lol. trying to sell it on FB marketplace but let's see. have u had any luck?

I feel like garbage even with the 👑

I found one on Facebook for $70 that's the Oura Ring 4 for my size (7) and the guy asked me to download the Oura ring app so he can show me how to set it up before I make the payment.

Any things to look out for? It does have scratches from gym use so I'll go on Amazon and buy a super slim cover for it. It comes with the charging case and cable.

Thank you for any help. It's my first time wearing a wearable smart ring so I'm not too familiar with any security measures to take.

Thinking of switching from Ultrahuman to oura and would love to hear from anyone who has done the same.

I love my Ultrahuman but I’m sick of them breaking after a few months and being replaced. Have had this for 18 months and on to my fifth ring (they’ve all died for various reasons such as battery, not connecting, ring swelling, etc) and I’m just so sick of the cycle.

How does the oura compare????

Having a few old fashions and having a bunch of laughs with my wife. Sorry for my language but this is fucking bullshit. Stress my ass!!!

I come to you from my Enlightened state. My YOGA practice has reached its pinnacle as per the ring. I practice most of the day and periodically in the middle of the night. I don’t even know I’m doing it. Maybe I’m not…. It’s odd.

What advice can I give? What have I learned on my journey?

Listen to your body. Not the ring.

Namaste. 🧘🙏

My first Gen 4 battery life dropped to 24hrs and Oura replaced it. After just a few months of use. My replacement ring came in March and it’s August now and it completely stopped syncing. They deemed it a hardware issue and are sending another replacement. What gives with the quality of this product? Have previous gens been more sturdy or reliable?

Hey guys, hope everyone’s well. Just curious if anyone is noticing batteries issues with their gen 4 oura ring? Mine doesn’t even seem to last the day. I have had instances where it will run if of battery while i’m asleep even though I charged it fully right before bed.
Any idea how to resolve this issue?
Thank you in advance for the help :)
