Does Oura work with peloton?

The Oura ring is unable to connect and work with any of the Peloton machines. Although there are many different versions of the ring, there still hasn’t been a ring that can connect with the machines in order to track your workouts and heart rate while using them.

Can Oura Ring detect cycling?

Yes, the Oura ring is able to detect when you are cycling!

As you move around and engage in different physical activities, Oura keeps track. By viewing the movement graph on your Activity tab, you can quickly understand when and how you’ve moved throughout your day.

By identifying unique patterns in your movement over short periods of time, Oura can identify particular activity types, such as cycling, soccer, tennis, or the use of an elliptical machine.

If you already track your activities using another device, Oura can identify when the same activity has been detected and will only present one of them in your Oura App.

Any activity you’ve manually added in the Oura App will take precedence, followed by workouts imported via Apple Health or Google Fit. If your activity hasn’t already been tracked using one of the methods above, AAD will pick it up.

Because movement captured by AAD comes from your real-time physical experience, this feature offers a more accurate calculation of calories burned during an activity. As you continue to use AAD and confirm activities, your detected workouts and their details become more precise as your personal movement tendencies add up over time.
