I have an Apple Watch that I wear overnight and have a sleep tracking app. Have you compared your ring to your watch to see if they report similar results? I have been considering the ring for HRV tracking (the Apple Watch only tracks HRV at random times when you are still, whereas the ring apparently tracks continuously) but also wondered if the sleep tracking is superior. Thoughts?

I started wearing an Oura ring about 10 days ago, and I’ve continued wearing my Apple Watch at night to compare the data collected by the ring and a couple of apps I use (AutoSleep and Pillow). Feel free to send along any specific questions (email is on my profile) about how they compare.
It's worth to know that the watch also tracks HRV whenever you use the Breathe app, so if you want to get consistent HRV readings the easiest way is to use Breathe once a day (for example right when you wake up).
