⚡ = where they differ.

Oura Ring 4

Official REST API (v2) via your own OAuth app (personal tokens were deprecated in Dec 2025). The API needs an active Oura Membership; data download via the Membership Hub doesn't. Home Assistant support is a community (HACS) integration.

RingConn Gen 2 Air

The budget RingConn. Like the rest of the lineup, it needs no subscription but has no public API, so getting data out means syncing to Apple Health or Health Connect.
