Good for continuous monitoring, with small to average fingers --- UPDATED REVIEW ---
HERE WE ARE 8 MONTHS LATER and this ring has been fantastic. It does need charged which my mother-in-law has some difficulty doing so when I'm over there I plug it in for her. But she slips the ring on and can see where her saturations are. The first reading is always off, let it sit on your finger for another second and you get accurate readings. This thing has been fantastic and I absolutely recommend it. My mother-in-law is improving and now only needs oxygen part-time. this ring is great for her to see where she's at. I know she can feel when she needs O2 but she really does love using this thing. Peace of mind maybe? Showing progress maybe? Whatever the reason she absolutely uses this and keeps it in her purse.Also, we never used the app. Just charge it and use it. She has used it overnight a few times and it vibrated her awake when her O2 sats were low, but she mainly keeps it in her purse to throw on her finger when she needs to check it.--- Original review below ---So we needed to get something like this for an older family member who is constantly out of breath. The Dr told us if her O2 saturation falls below a certain point while walking then we need to change therapy. But when she gets out of breath she sits down and fumbles around looking for her oximeter so by the time she finds it she's sat for a minute and her sats look ok.This lets her wear the ring and try to walk from the bedroom to the living room and she can monitor it the entire time.It worked well when we tried it on my wife and mother in law. But I have big fingers and it didn't seem accurate on me, kinda bounced all over the place. I know for certain my sats weren't in the 70's! So big fingers, no go. Small and medium fingers, works well.

Unobtrusive with useful features
I have been diagnosed with sleep apnea and recently started CPAP therapy. With sleep apnea, often your oxygen saturation is signifigantly reduced at times during sleep. I wanted this device because I was curious to see what my oxygen saturation looks like overnight since starting treatment. (Note that I am using this for curiosity's sake, not for medical decision making. My diagnosis was determined using a physician-provided monitoring device.)I needed a device that was unobtrusive enough that it wouldn't impair my rest yet is sturdy enough to stay in place throughout the night.I'm pleased to say this device has worked well for my needs. I'm able to see a chart of my O2 saturation, pulse rate and movement through the whole night once downloaded to the app.The app doesn't have a lot of features, but it does chart out the readings and allows you to export a pdf or csv of the readings. It starts a particular set of readings when you put the device on and stops when you remove it. Once paired, which is an easy process, when you open the app, it will download the data from the device. You can then select which reading you would like to review in the app and it will it out.I charge the device during the day and it has lasted all night for me.This is not a diagnostic medical device, please do not use it to make healthcare decisions. Think of it more like a fitness tracker, where you gain insight by reviewing the gathered data.I like the device and it has worked for me.Some things I wish were improved: I would prefer if it charged via USB-C rather than micro USB. Although the packaging is nice, I'd prefer it to come with a small case to protect it between uses rather than put it back in the box.

Overpriced and buggy, but the OxyRing device works
I bought this as I was having serious sleep issues. It did reveal I likely have hypopnea fron taking my nerve pain meds, so it has been very helpful, but the cons outweigh the pros. It did show me I had a serious problem. Kudos there, but there's lots of cons.For starters, it is defective. It doesnt keep time, so you have to sync it with the ViHealth app literally every day and night. You have to charge it daily, too. A hassle.It's flimsy and only for indoor use.The app is very hard to figure out. I almost sent the OxyRing back on Day One, as the app is non-intuitive and there's zero seller support.The basics are this: DL the app, charge the OxyRing, configure it as a BT device with your phone or tablet. Put it on your thumb or index finger.Connect and then Sync the OxyRing while on the History Tab before bedtime. Check the time and your pulse and O2.The next morning, remove the OxyRing when you awaken. That shuts it off.Fire up the app. Connect to the OxyRing. Go to History. Wait 10 seconds and it will upload your nitely datapoints via Bluetooth.Then, you can try to sort out the charts. Use a spread-finger method to zero in on drops. There's a button at the top that puts a vertical bulls eye line you can move around to get to the datapoints and display them quickly.The 02 score makes no sense. How it's calculated is anyone's guess. It's not just drops or levels of drops. It's not based on average 02 levels.No explanations. FAQs are useless. I sent in a support Q via the app about my device losing 10 minutes every 12 hours. No reply.I guess mine is defective? The Vines reviewers all said great things, but for $160, it should keep time better than a $2 digital watch.The app needs work. It took 4 days to figure out how it works.The device plus the app is functional at least short term. A plus is the ability to export your nightly charts of datapoints as a PDF or CVS file.But the build quality is cheap like the app.It can be a life saver, but so is a duckbill device for 1/6 the cost.

inaccurate and expensive
very comfortable and stable on the finger, easy access were the reason I purchased this model. However, it is in accurate. I tested mine, with 2 other different models. The wearable was confusing, in that you're not sure which number is the end result to the oxy meter. Have to guess there. Compared to the less expensive models, the numbers on the wearable were always off by 10 pts. at times. The other 2 displayed the same numbers 97% of the time.It's a waste of money.
