I've been wearing an Oura Ring to track my fitness for 4 years. Here are the pros and cons of the device loved by celebs and bus

My Oura Ring tracks my movement and rest across the day, and it is subtle enough to wear on any occasion.Rachel HosieThe Oura Ring is a fitness tracker popular among athletes, business execs, and celebrities.Fitness reporter Rachel Hosie has used one for four years and was originally attracted by its look.Oura ``Rings provide sleep data, step counts, and menstrual cycle tracking.When I first learned about a new fitness-tracking smart ring four years ago, it wasn't the promise of high-tech features that most piqued my interest, it was the look.As someone who enjoys both fashion and fitness, I didn't think the wrist-worn devices I'd encountered as a health reporter, such as the Whoop strap, Apple Watch, and Fitbit, were attractive enough for me to wear all day every day, to everything from the gym to a wedding.But the Oura Ring, which just looks like a chunky band (mine is gold but other colors are available), was different.Four years later, the look is still important to me, but it's the increasingly clever features that mean I still wear an Oura Ring.Launched in 2013, the Oura ring's popularity has soared in recent years and can be spotted on the hands of athletes, business execs, and celebrities.
