How to connect your Oura Ring to Apple Health?

This guide shows you how to connect your Oura Ring with Apple Health, so Anticipate can sync with your health data and act as an automated mental health monitor.

By syncing your Oura data, you allow Anticipate to access a more complete view of your activity, sleep, and readiness — and combine it with any extra context you add (like quick tags for things your devices can’t capture) to generate more personalized insights.

You’ll need your iPhone with the Oura app installed and logged in.

If you can’t find these setup steps in the Oura Ring app, or some data seems to be missing, please check Oura’s official Apple Health Integration guide for the latest step-by-step instructions.

1. Open the Oura app on your iPhone and tap the menu icon (☰) in the top-left corner.
2. Select Settings from the menu.
3. Under the Data sharing section, tap on Apple Health.
4. Tap the Connect to Apple Health button.
5. Choose the data categories you wish to sync. You can tap Turn On All to sync everything or select specific metrics individually.
6. Tap Allow in the top-right corner to confirm your selections and complete the connection.
