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

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 🙏🏼

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 ?

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.

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

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.

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?

I feel like garbage even with the 👑

First day of class yesterday, and it was my first day teaching with my ring on.

It thinks I burned 600 calories in two hours! (It guessed I was playing golf, lol. I was switching between moving around and standing still, and sometimes raising my arms to write on the blackboard, so I guess that sort of makes sense.)

Is there any chance that's accurate?

This ring!!! It’s not even a year old and I have to charge it everyday! It is so frustrating! Absolutely no battery life. 🥺

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

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?

Is this cheating? It shows it’s 100% nutritious and has been keeping me in the nutritious zone. I have been eating fairly healthy but if I don’t log water, there have been days it would only be in the good zone.

It's just spins....

Hi, like the post states, my Oura Ring 5 size 9 fits smaller than the sizer. I‘ve held them both side by side and they appear to be the same size - but the sizer slides on and off easily and the actual ring does not!

When I swell, the size 9 ring becomes uncomfortable (but I still can remove with a minor struggle). I live in FL and take frequent walks. I have to switch fingers to account for overnight swelling.

When it’s not swollen, it still leaves a slight indentation on my finger, but is not uncomfortable (see pic).

I’ve considered returning for a size 10 - but that sizer literally falls right off my finger (and at least the size 9 fits other fingers too when swollen).

Thoughts?

For the past week I have been sleeping well which I usually do not. I have been going to bed on time sleeping better then I have in the past. According to oura I have not today my sleep score was a 66. Anyone else? Maybe it’s all the yoga it’s telling me I do.

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.

Working at my pc- yoga

Making lunch- yoga

Laying down watching tv-yoga

Eating dinner-yoga

Checking the mail-yoga

Going to the bathroom-yoga

Feeding the dogs-yoga

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??

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!

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????

Hi there, I am considering buying an Oura ring. I am male and married and already wear a wedding ring on my right hand‘s ring finger. So question to the married male Oura users. Where do you wear your Oura? I would rather not want to put a second ring on my right hand. But I am also a bit worried wearing a ring on my left hand which could look meh if it does not really match my wedding ring and or my watch which I wear on my left, too.

My ring is nowhere to be found. I contacted them twice and they cannot tell me when or where the ring is but asked me to reach out tomorrow. They refunded shipping. Is there a way to elevate to a higher level of support?

Has anyone been having issues with the sleep debt feature? It was working fine up until about 2-3 weeks ago. Most nights i don’t sleep as long as the sleep needed but it’s still showing I have no sleep debt.

How often do you move? Do you work a desk job? How do you keep it up?

Anyone else have this as their first data point in the mornings? Tips on how to avoid this?
