Oura Support

Oura Ring Data Available in Apple Health for Titan Users

When users connect their Oura Ring to the Oura app and enable Apple Health integration, a variety of health and activity data points are synced to Apple Health. This allows apps like Titan to access this data through HealthKit, providing insights into users' health and fitness. Note that Oura's Apple Health integration is supported for Oura Ring Gen2, Gen3, and Oura Ring 4 (with an active membership) and is available only on iOS devices.

Data Exported from Oura to Apple Health

The following data points are synced from Oura to Apple Health and can be accessed by Titan when the integration is enabled:

• Active Energy: Calories burned during activity, excluding Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR).
• Heart Rate: Recorded in one-minute intervals, offering detailed tracking of cardiovascular activity.
• Height: User's height as logged in Oura.
• Mindful Minutes: Time spent in mindfulness activities.
• Respiratory Rate: Average nighttime respiratory rate, providing insight into breathing patterns during sleep.
• Resting Energy: Calories burned at rest, separate from active energy.
• Sleep: Comprehensive sleep data, including:
• Sleep duration
• Start and end times
• Sleep stages (e.g., light, deep, REM)
• Steps: Total steps recorded by the Oura Ring.
• Weight: User's weight as logged in Oura.
• Workouts: Includes workouts manually added by the user, recorded via Activity Heart Rate, or detected through Automatic Activity Detection, with details such as:
• Active calories burned
• Distance covered
• Duration (start and end times)
• Workout type (e.g., running, cycling)

Key Considerations

HRV and Resting Heart Rate Not Exported

Oura does not export Heart Rate Variability (HRV) or resting heart rate (RHR) data to Apple HealthKit. As a result, these metrics are not available to Titan or other apps via Apple Health, even if they are visible in the Oura app.

Steps and Activity Rings

Steps tracked by Oura do not contribute to the Stand Ring in Apple Health due to an Apple limitation. However, they do contribute to the Move Ring via active energy.

Workouts and Activity Rings

Exported workouts impact both the Move Ring (via active calories) and the Exercise Ring (via total duration) in Apple Health.

Data Display Variations

Sleep stages and heart rate graphs may differ between the Oura app and Apple Health due to Apple's data processing, such as rounding or varying time intervals.

Enabling the Integration

For Titan to access Oura data via HealthKit:

• Users must enable Apple Health integration in the Oura app settings (Menu > Settings > Data Sharing > Apple Health) and grant permissions in Apple Health (Settings > Health > Data Access & Devices > Oura).
• Data syncs to Apple Health after an activity or workout is completed, though timing may vary. For best results, users should keep the Oura app and Apple Health updated and enable background app refresh on their iPhone.

Additional Notes

Data Accuracy

While Oura's data in Apple Health is generally accurate, slight discrepancies may arise due to differences in processing or display between Oura and Apple Health.

Multiple Devices

If users wear multiple fitness trackers, step counts might overlap. Users can prioritize Oura for steps in Apple Health (Health app > Browse > Activity > Steps > Data Sources & Access > Edit) to avoid double-counting.
