The Oura Ring will soon be able to gauge how ‘old’ your heart is

The new metrics represent Oura’s shift toward longer-term health insights.

After about 14 days of tracking, Oura Ring users will get a readout that says whether you’re trending above, below, or in alignment (plus or minus five years) of your chronological age. For example, the app will tell you what climbing five flights of stairs may feel like in 10 years on your current trajectory, versus one where you improve your VO2 Max. Given that, it makes sense that Oura is eager to flex its expertise and reputation for investing heavily in scientific research.
