The Oura Ring, in the race.
Oura built the wearable ring category — the form factor for people who don't want a watch on their wrist 24/7. MoveTogether reads your Oura Ring activity, calorie burn, and workouts via OAuth, and lines them up against friends on Apple Watch, Garmin, Fitbit, and every other supported tracker. One leaderboard. Equal footing.
OAuth via your Oura account.
Sign in on Oura's own login page and grant MoveTogether read access to your activity data. We receive an OAuth access token from Oura; your password never touches our servers. Revoke anytime from your Oura account.
Oura Ring (Generation 3) and newer.
Any Oura Ring active in the Oura app supports the integration. Generation 3 is the current shipping generation; Generation 4 (and any future hardware) ships under the same Oura account and works automatically.
What we read from Oura.
MoveTogether normalizes a small set of activity metrics across every supported wearable. Here’s what specifically comes through from Oura.
Sync cadence
Every 15–30 minutes
Your ring syncs to the Oura app on your phone in the background. We poll the Oura API regularly so activity lands on the leaderboard within roughly 15–30 minutes of appearing in Oura. Pull-to-refresh in MoveTogether to force a sync attempt.
Best scoring methods for Oura.
Oura users get fair treatment across most scoring methods:
Percentage of Goals
Fair across mixed devices. Doesn't penalize the ring's slightly different activity model versus a watch.
Workout Based
Counts only logged or auto-detected workouts. Good for ring wearers who actively tag training sessions.
Step Count
Oura tracks steps. Classic step competitions are fair territory.
Oura questions, briefly answered.
Do I need an Oura membership?
The integration uses Oura's activity data, which is included in standard Oura functionality. You don't need a separate MoveTogether add-on.
Are sleep or readiness scores used?
No. MoveTogether only pulls activity-related data (steps, calories, exercise minutes, workouts). Your sleep score and readiness stay private between you and Oura.
How does ring-based step counting compare to a wrist tracker?
Ring step counts can read slightly different from wrist trackers — accelerometer placement matters. For mixed-device competitions, Percentage of Goals or Workout Based scoring sidesteps the question entirely.
I have multiple Oura Rings (different generations) on my account. Does it matter?
No. Oura merges activity from your active ring into one stream. We read that stream — generation transitions happen invisibly to MoveTogether.
