How do I set up an Oura Ring?

To set up an Oura Ring, one must first charge the device using the provided wireless charging dock, ensuring that the charging contacts are clean and dry for optimal connectivity. Once charged, one should download the Oura app from either the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store, depending on their smartphone's operating system. After installing the app, create an account or log in and follow the setup instructions which include pairing the ring with a smartphone via Bluetooth. The app will guide through a series of prompts to personalize user settings such as profile information and goals. Additionally, it is important to allow the app to access necessary permissions like Bluetooth and notifications so that it can function correctly and sync data from the Oura Ring. Once the setup is complete, wear the ring consistently, especially during sleep, to start tracking health metrics like activity levels, sleep quality, and readiness.
