4. Operating the O2Ring
4.1. Automatic Operation
The O2Ring automatically powers on and begins recording data once worn. It will continuously track your blood oxygen level and pulse rate.
4.2. Viewing Real-Time Data on the Device
The device features a backlit screen that displays real-time SpO2 and pulse rate readings. A single touch on the device's touch switch will cycle through the display of current time, battery level, SpO2, and pulse rate.
4.3. Syncing Data to the App
Connect the O2Ring to the ViHealth app via Bluetooth. Data will automatically upload to the app, providing a comprehensive history and trends. The app allows for unlimited data storage.

4.4. Understanding App Reports
The ViHealth app provides detailed analysis of your data, including:
- Oxygen Level: Graphs showing SpO2 trends over time.
- Pulse Rate: Graphs showing heart rate trends.
- Motion: Indicates periods of activity during monitoring.
- O2 Score: A calculated score based on oxygen levels.
- Drops: Records instances where SpO2 falls below a certain threshold.
You can zoom in/out on charts to view data at 4-second intervals and share PDF/CSV reports with others.
