Oura Ring users will get access to Oura Labs, an in-app platform that gives them access to experimental features.

The Oura Ring is getting a bit more experimental. Starting today, Oura users will get access to a new Oura Labs feature, which allows them to opt in to experimental features. The first will be something called Symptom Radar, which detects early signs of physiological strain. Symptom Radar isn’t quite illness detection — a feature that Oura and many other wearables companies put a lot of research into during the early days of the covid-19 pandemic.

As you can see in the screenshot, the company states that it’s “not a diagnostic feature” and that the goal is to help you better understand your body’s signals. The former would involve getting clearance from the FDA. The latter is considered wellness and general education, which fall outside of the FDA’s purview. Still, that’s not to say illness detection is completely off the table.
