Oura rolls out a slew of fitness tracking updates and a handful of new partners
TL;DR Oura rolled out a new trend view for users' active minutes and GPS-based fitness tracking metrics.
The company also announced new integrations with CorePower Yoga, The Sculpt Society, Technogym, and Open.
Most features are live now, with some Android-specific updates coming in June.
Smart ring maker Oura has announced the global rollout of new activity-tracking features. While some of these tools have been around since mid-April, other app and algorithm updates aim to further round out the Oura Ring, which was previously lacking in fitness tracking support. Several improvements are now live for both Android and iOS users, though some Android-specific enhancements won't land until June.
As previously covered, Oura members can now add or edit workouts from the past seven days, and the app's Readiness and Activity scores will adjust automatically. Likewise, Automatic Activity Detection, which now works 24/7, including during overnight hours, addresses a previous limitation of the platform. Late night and early morning movement previously went unrecorded.
The company also overhauled its step-counting algorithm, using machine learning to more accurately detect real steps, and updated its calorie tracking estimates to factor in heart rate intensity during exercise. Finally, Oura improved its third-party integrations, pulling heart rate data from Apple HealthKit and Android's Health Connect to offer a more complete view of their activity.
What else has Oura announced?
Today's announcement introduces a few more enhancements including a brand-new trend view for active minutes. This allows Oura users to monitor their movement patterns on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Users can also set their max heart rate in the app as well, which helps personalize heart rate zones for more accurate workout tracking. For runners and walkers, GPS-based metrics now offer detailed breakdowns of metrics like running splits. While most of the activity updates are available now, the new trend view and GPS-based activity metrics will roll out to Android users next month.
Along with these updates to the Oura platform itself, the company also announced new partnerships with CorePower Yoga, The Sculpt Society, Technogym, and Open. CorePower Yoga now integrates with Oura to display sleep, heart rate, and stress data, helping users understand how their yoga practice affects recovery. The integration also includes a 15% discount on All-Access memberships. The Sculpt Society leverages Oura's Readiness Score to offer personalized workout suggestions. The partnership also includes cycle syncing, pregnancy, and postpartum support, and a 50% off offer for new users for their first two months using the code 'OURA.' Technogym's integration pulls tracked data like HRV, sleep, and resting heart rate to offer tailored training suggestions, and Open now uses Oura's tracked data to generate personalized recovery plans.
With this update, Oura seems to be pulling more fitness features into its focus, and it's a timely move as competition in the smart ring space heats up. For Android users eyeing the Samsung Galaxy Ring (and its potential second generation on the horizon), these Oura improvements and the expanding partner ecosystem could make it the more compelling choice for daily health tracking.

Pisen to Open First Retail Store in the U.S. this Wednesday, August 27, in Los Angeles
Pisen's first retail store in the U.S. opens this Wednesday, August 27, in Los Angeles. LOS ANGELES, Aug. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pisen, a trusted provider of power solutions and mobile accessories, today announced the opening of its first U.S. brick-and-mortar store in Los Angeles on Wednesday, August 27. Located at 630 S Los Angeles St, the new retail store marks an exciting milestone for the brand as it expands its physical presence stateside, with a second store set to open in New York just two days later, on Friday. The Journey that Brought Pisen to LA Pisen's story began in 2004, in one of the planet's harshest environments: the Antarctic. When China's "7+2" Antarctic Expedition Team needed a battery pack that could survive the extreme cold, Pisen rose to the challenge. What emerged was more than just a battery. It was a breakthrough redefined portable power. In 2017, Pisen reimagined mobile repair with 3C Easy. By 2019, Pisen introduced the PISEN MORE ecosystem, with the aim of establishing an interconnected network of products and services. In 2020, Pisen entered the new energy market, introducing products such as portable power stations, electric vehicle chargers, and C&I energy storage systems. From that first battery pack to now, Pisen has grown to power hundreds of millions of smart devices in all corners of the globe. Yet throughout the journey, what has remained the same is the original vision of crafting tech that keeps people powered and connected wherever they are. Today, with a footprint in more than 70 countries and regions, Pisen's products are engineered to perform everywhere. From bustling cities to remote adventures, they are there to keep people connected and ideas charged. And now, that exciting journey lands in Los Angeles, a city that thrives on connection, creativity, and constant motion. More Than a Retail Space Built to meet the varied needs of Los Angeles' tech-reliant community, the Pisen store is more than a retail space. It's a curated destination for Angelenos who rely on their devices to stay connected, productive, and inspired in this dynamic city. Inside the store, where warm orange hues blend seamlessly with modern wood finishes, customers are invited to explore a comprehensive range of Pisen's signature products and services. From ultra-slim travel chargers that slip easily into any bag to portable power stations ready to power every adventure, there's something for everyone. And it's not just about products. The store features a dedicated mobile repair zone where skilled technicians are ready to help. They provide on-site diagnostics, battery replacements, screen repairs, and whatever tech support customers might need. No issue is too niche, and no question is too simple. Celebrating with the Community To welcome its first Los Angeles customers, Pisen will host a series of events and offer exclusive perks. The day begins with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, featuring remarks from Pisen leadership. This will be followed by a traditional lion dance performance, an energetic tradition that blends cultural heritage with universal joy. Beyond the opening festivities, the store will welcome the community with exclusive in-store cash coupons, redeemable on any of Pisen's must-have charging essentials. Additionally, a lucky draw will offer customers the chance to win some fantastic prizes. Maybe it's a sleek wireless charger ready for your next adventure, or a versatile desktop charging station primed for your daily grind. The Pisen Los Angeles store will welcome its first customers on Wednesday, August 27, at 10:30 am. About Pisen Founded in 2003, Pisen is a leading provider of power solutions, dedicated to designing innovative products that empower human connections, spark curiosity, and light up possibilities.
