Customers find the blood oxygen monitor to be a fantastic tool that’s easy to set up and convenient to use, providing good data for tracking O2 levels and heart rate. Moreover, the device helps understand sleep patterns and gently wakes users when necessary. However, the functionality and accuracy receive mixed feedback, with some reporting it works well while others find it inaccurate at times. Additionally, battery life is also mixed, with some saying it lasts overnight while others report poor performance.

Most comfortable style, good third party software support. Easy to use phone and PC apps.
Performs well, easy to use, has both phone app and PC app. The data can be loaded into OSCAR (Open Source CPAP Analysis Reporter). For me, it is less noticeable than the rubber cup finger sensors with a separate wrist component. I started with one of those because it was cheaper, and if you only need it for a short time or very occasional use, that style might be fine. But, I use it every night.It does seem to be a bit on the small side. My hands are men’s med/lg, I’d say. I usually wear it on my ring finger, sometimes pinky. But, the band is rubber, so I can get it on my other fingers. My concern would be if you are a big guy with large hands you may be limited to your pinkies.I’ve been very satisfied with my purchase and would buy it again.

Useful item for continuous oxygen monitoring
This is a useful item that appears to generate reliable (or at least sensible) oxygen data while you sleep. I found it comfortable enough to sleep in even though I have very small hands, and though the app wasn’t incredibly intuitive at first, I did figure it out. Downside, at least with my use, is that it needs to be charged pretty much every day, and if you don’t remember to do that, it quits overnight without capturing O2 in the wee hours if the morning, which for me is the vulnerable spot.

Great graphing feature.
I’ve had cheaper oximeters but this one is better and worth it! Easy to use and downloads data to both a cell phone app and to a computer program for drilling down into oxygen, pulse and movement. I combine it with a sleepgpt app and it tells me much. My use is for sleep apnea but there are other uses too. Exercise, pilots, smokers. You can get all of the information that you need for a sleep study without the stay in a strange place and save money, if your doctor and insurance company cooperate.

Keeps Restarting Itself and Wakes Me Up
It seems like it can’t suddenly read pulse/O2 and it vibrates and shows — on the screen. After a few seconds the pulse and O2 starts showing again, but it starts as a new session. I see another reviewer had the same problem. When it does this it wakes me up. Sometimes in does it 3 or 4 times a night. I’ve only used it 4 nights and it has woken me two out of the four nights.I am sending it back and will try another one and hopefully it will work better. I’ve worn it during the day to ensure that it wasn’t losing good contact and it’s not. It just seems not to be able to sense my pulse/O2 which causes it to restart.Update:I sent it back a got a replacement. It worked fine for a few days and then I got the reset again. I contacted support and they stated that if the sensor has pressure applied to it, that it will cause it to reset. They also suggested I do a Factory Reset from the app, which I did.I used it for a few days ensuring that I kept it away from the pillow and it worked okay for a few weeks. Then suddenly last night it started resetting. It did it about five times and I ended with the last four resets recorded and lost most of the nights sleep. I know that it wasn’t toughing anything since I was awake.I did another Factory Reset and I see if it does it again tonight or the next few days. I only have until November 12th to see if this thing will keep acting up and waking me up. If it does, it’s going back for good.Useless to have a device that resets so often that it wakes you up and doesn’t record you full night of sleep and only has four sessions that are each about 30 minutes.

Got this for my mother (who has a lung condition) and overall we have been quite impressed, we use this as an alarm as to when she needs rest and focus on breathing during the day. so for anyone not using it for sleep tracking it works well for use during the day. A few improvements we would like to see would be:1. better battery life as the battery life lasts 8-10 hours in real life2. better app, while the app serves us well for basic information it could be made better with interconnectivity for other people to view (pay wall doesn’t even work when we try to set up remote view).3. there is a 2-3 minute delay (letting the algorithms do its thing i’m guessing?), it appears from when you start to move or breath poorly and when you get the alert on your ring (vibration), we have compared it to other oxygen sensors (over the counter and medical grade) and while it is accurate the tracking time is delayed. Would be nice if the data loop was shorter and was a little closer to real time data (<20 seconds).

While I’m not tech savvy (over 60) this amazing device is easy to wear while sleeping and easy to view information on both iPad and PC. Gives a great view of sleep pattern and able to set vibration alert for instances of oxygen desaturation. I’m still learning about the information provided but so far really impressed. Husband has large hands so can only wear on little finger but seems fine. Hoping it has longevity. I think it would be useful to monitor the effectiveness of CPAP therapy at home too. In my home it’s providing great reassurance about O2 saturation during sleep. Very pleased with this device. Would recommend.

The device does what it says on the box; monitors your SPO2 levels. Just to explain, I’ve had open heart surgery (triple CABG) and I use a CPAP machine. 2 reasons to monitor oxygen levels. I was originally looking for a finger-clip style O2 monitor.I’ve been using the O2 ring for a week now and have had to only contact support once. The device wasn’t being recognised by the PC software.The device is both bulky and fragile. You have to take care when removing clothing over it as you could break the elastic sensor ring. It’s easy to forget it’s on, so be prepared to quite often get it caught in your clothing.The elastic ring has an expansion section. I don’t have large hands but I found that it was quite tight even on my index finger. You can wear it on (in order) Thumb, Index, Little finger. Not middle or ring fingers. I found wearing on my non-dominant index finger worked best. On the little finger it was too loose and kept coming off overnight.The instructions warn against squashing the sensor in either direction; flat against the display or from the sides. This makes it very difficult to hold when attaching the charging cable or removing or attaching the ring to your finger. I found that holding the device at either end of the display to be safest. Unfortunately this puts a bit of strain on the elastic sensor ring when attaching or removing the ring.The device connects to your PC via a “special” read proprietary and expensive cable ($40 USD at time of writing, so don’t lose it or break it). When connected to your PC you can use the Wellue O2 ring software to download your ‘session’ data. But there’s a trick/trap. You have to make sure Bluetooth is OFF on your phone (so support advise, however I suspect you can just move your phone out of range or turn it off. There’s NOTHING you can do at the ring itself to disconnect Bluetooth)You can then connect the cable, start up the software then wait for the ring to connect and download the data. Once you’ve downloaded the data you can then disconnect the cable (and cease charging the ring), turn Bluetooth on your phone [ I’ve found the Bluetooth connectivity to the phone to be a bit random. Sometimes it works, often it doesn’t. ]Note that the cable is also a charging cable. I haven’t yet checked whether I can charge the device using a ‘standard’ charging cable while also having it connected to the phone app via Bluetooth.I’m not sure how this might help over say a finger-type O2 monitor for around $30 (less than the cost of the data/charging cable for the O2 Ring), other than the logging facility.For the money spent I can’t recommend this device UNLESS you suspect you have serious O2 issues that your health professionals do not accept. This will allow you to prove to them that you have O2 issues.[ In my Country we don’t get a subsidy for devices like this so it’s cheaper to just make dozens of visits to the doctors and specialists. ]In summary; at the price I can live without it. If it broke outside the warranty period I likely wouldn’t replace it. Perhaps I might change my mind as firmware development improves.Hope this helps.Stay safe.
