Your ring still works after canceling — just with fewer features!
Unlike some wearables, your Oura Ring doesn't become a paperweight when you cancel. Basic features like sleep duration tracking, heart rate, and activity monitoring still work for free. You only lose the detailed scores, personalized insights, and advanced analytics that come with the membership.
Method 1: Cancel via Oura Website
Go to cloud.ouraring.com and sign in
Open your browser and navigate to cloud.ouraring.com. Log in with your Oura account credentials (email and password). This is where you manage your subscription.
Navigate to Account settings
Click on your account icon or name, then go to Account or Account Settings. Look for the Subscription section, which shows your current plan and billing details.
Click "Cancel Subscription"
In the Subscription section, click Cancel Subscription. Oura may ask why you're canceling and might offer a discount or alternative. If you're sure, continue through the prompts.
Confirm and you're done
Confirm the cancellation. You'll keep premium features until the end of your current billing period. After that, you'll drop to the free tier with basic tracking. Check your email for a confirmation.
Method 2: Cancel via the Oura App
Open the Oura app
Launch the Oura app on your iPhone or Android device. Make sure you're logged in to the account associated with your subscription.
Go to Settings and find Subscription
Tap the menu or profile icon, then navigate to Settings or Account. Find the Subscription or Membership option.
Cancel and confirm
Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm your choice. If you subscribed through Apple or Google Play, the app may redirect you to the respective store to complete the cancellation.

What Happens After You Cancel Oura?
Your ring keeps working with basic features
Your Oura Ring continues to track sleep, heart rate, and activity without a subscription. You just won't get the detailed breakdowns, scores, and personalized recommendations that come with the membership.
Premium access lasts until your billing period ends
You keep all premium features until the end of the period you've already paid for. After that date, the app switches to the free experience automatically.
Your historical data is preserved
Oura keeps all your historical tracking data in your account. If you resubscribe later, all your past data and trends will be available again with premium insights applied retroactively.
Resubscribe anytime to get premium back
You can resubscribe to Oura Membership at any time to get all your premium features back instantly. No new setup needed — just reactivate and you're good to go.
Before You Cancel: Alternatives to Consider
Try Free Tier First
Cancel and see if the free features are enough for your needs. You might find that basic sleep and heart rate tracking is all you really use. You can always resubscribe.
Check for Lifetime Access
Early Oura Ring buyers may have been grandfathered into lifetime access. Check your account settings — if you have a legacy subscription, you might not need to pay at all.
Compare with Apple Health
If you have an Apple Watch, Apple Health provides sleep tracking and health metrics included with the device. You might be paying for overlapping features.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does my Oura Ring still work without a subscription?
Yes! Your Oura Ring continues to function as a health tracker without a paid subscription. You still get basic sleep duration, heart rate, and activity data. You just lose access to the detailed breakdowns like sleep staging, personalized daily scores, body temperature trends, and guided content that come with the membership.
How much does the Oura subscription cost?
The Oura Membership costs $5.99 per month. New ring purchases typically come with a free trial period (usually 1 month). After the trial, you're automatically charged unless you cancel. Compared to WHOOP ($30/mo) or Fitbit Premium ($9.99/mo), Oura is one of the more affordable wearable subscriptions.
Will I get a refund when I cancel Oura?
Oura does not typically provide prorated refunds for unused portions of your billing period. Your premium access continues until the end of the current period you've paid for. If you subscribed through Apple or Google Play, you'd need to request a refund through those platforms according to their policies.
Do I get a free trial with a new Oura Ring?
Yes, new Oura Ring purchases typically come with a complimentary membership trial period. The length varies but is commonly 1 month. After the trial, the $5.99/month charge kicks in automatically. Pro tip: set a reminder in your calendar a few days before the trial ends so you can decide whether to keep it.
What about lifetime Oura memberships?
When Oura first introduced the subscription model, some early ring owners were offered lifetime memberships as part of a grandfathering deal. If you purchased an Oura Ring before the subscription model launched, check your account — you might have lifetime access and not need to pay at all. Lucky you!
