Oura launches redesigned app and ‘Cumulative Stress’ feature

Oura has launched a redesigned app featuring enhanced personalization through three main tabs: “Today,” which highlights daily insights; “Vitals,” offering quick views of sleep, stress, and cardiovascular trends; and “My Health,” which focuses on long-term well-being with sections on habits and routines. The update also improves menstrual cycle tracking by extending predictions of periods and fertile windows from one month to twelve months. A key new addition is the “Cumulative Stress” feature, which measures how chronic stress accumulates over time by analyzing five physiological factors—sleep continuity, heart stress-response, sleep micro-motions, temperature regulation, and activity impact—providing weekly updates based on the past month’s data. Additionally, Oura is pursuing FDA clearance for a blood pressure feature aimed at assessing users’ likelihood of hypertension. The company has initiated a Blood Pressure Profile study at its U.S.-based Oura Labs, approved by an Institutional Review Board, which passively tracks signals from the Oura Ring combined with user questionnaires
