Pretty doggone good
For being what most would consider a “knock-off” of Aura, this app is fantastic. Clean user interface with easy to understand graphics and metrics. At times, the functionality of the ring itself can take some getting used to, especially with sleep features and automatic workout detection. Those can be a little finicky, but truly, what I like about this product is that it does what it does well - and as advertised.
At times, you can tell some items are more fleshed out than others. For example, the plan functionality can seem a bit…confusing? You are able to set goals and a plan, but there isn’t a ton of guidance as to how best to set it up, or what exactly it does. With a somewhat narrow range of goals that are offered, it seems like more of a personal planner than a health plan.
The sleep apnea monitoring takes a little getting used to, only because it only records it in sets of three nights for the sake of your ring battery. After that, you have to manually hit “reassess.” That said, though, the data is accurate (according to my wife, anyhow) and useful. A truly great feature once you get the hang of it.
Overall, this app does a great job at what it does. Although it has a few “extra” features that I don’t think are totally necessary, it in no way detracts from the experience of the app. I would definitely recommend RingConn to anyone looking for an affordable alternative to the big brands.

Sleep tracking not accurate.
Since the app was changed, the sleep tracking is not accurate. Don’t need a smiley face with start and stop times (that are wrong). We wear these things for the details.
Inaccurate Activity Detection
The activity detection is very inaccurate. The app frequently records activity during specific time periods when I wasn’t actually doing anything at all. It shows activities starting and ending at certain times even though no activity took place during those periods. This makes the tracking unreliable and defeats the purpose of using the app.

Ringconn 3. Terrible disappointment after using oura
I had high hopes. Been using ringconn 3 for several months now.
Its sleep tracking is terrible. Many nights it’ll track me as in rem or light sleep when I’m wide awake reading. Last night as an example it had over 90 minutes of sleep recorded that wasn’t sleep time.
It won’t let you change sensitivity anywhere and it won’t let you edit sleep time between awake and asleep and awake again (it will let you change start and end times, but not middle times, like 3-5am is not editable if you went to sleep at 11pm and got out of bed at 7am).
Super disappointed.
On the plus side, the battery life is fantastic. Charger is easy to use. Ring is comfortable.
But I bought it 100% to track sleep and it fails at that. Might have to go back to Oura.

RingConn
I need to understand why my ring will no longer charge. I almost a year old? What is up with that!!!
