Factory Reset an Oura Ring

A factory reset can be helpful if you're transferring your Oura Ring to another user, troubleshooting an issue, or planning to store the ring for a period of time. If you plan to use the ring again after the reset (for example, after troubleshooting), you'll need to pair it to your device again.

Performing a factory reset will erase data stored on the ring itself, but any data synced to your Oura account or Oura on the Web will not be affected.

To perform a factory reset:

1. Ensure that you have a stable internet connection
2. Place your ring on the charger for a few minutes
3. Open the Oura App and wait for the latest sync
4. Back up your data:
   • Tap on the menu in the upper-left corner of the home screen
   • Select Settings > Back up all data
5. When the backup is complete, take your ring off the charger and place it on a flat surface
6. Factory reset your ring
   • Tap the menu in the upper-left corner > My Oura Ring, or tap the   battery icon in the upper-right corner to go directly to the My Oura Ring page
   • Tap Factory reset
7. When the factory reset is complete, leave the ring off the charger and keep it on a flat surface without moving it for two minutes. This allows the ring to enter power saving mode if you're storing the ring
8. In your device's Bluetooth settings, remove your Oura Ring from the list of connected devices

Once you've completed the ring factory reset, your Oura App will display a "Connect your Oura Ring" message, indicating that the process is complete and your ring is now cleared of all previous data.

To re-sync your personal account data with your ring, tap Continue. To sync your data to a new ring, follow these instructions to set up a replacement ring.
