Pairing the Prolo Ring works just like connecting a Bluetooth headset:

• Take the ring out of the charging state — it will automatically enter pairing mode.
• Open Bluetooth settings on the device you want to connect.
• Find “Prolo Ring” in the available device list and tap to pair.
• Once connected, it functions as a standard Bluetooth HID device.
  

If you want to pair it with a second device or manually advertise, use the pairing gesture (2x Tap then Press hold Modstrip) to make the ring advertise again.

No — you don’t.
Out of the box, Prolo works as a standard Bluetooth HID device across all major platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS). You’ll get full cursor movement, scrolling, clicking, and media control right away — no setup or software required.

Yes. You can create custom gestures in the Prolo Studio app and store them directly on the ring, allowing your personalized gestures to work on other devices without reconfiguring.

You can also use the Prolo Studio app as a translator, letting you switch profiles quickly and unlock advanced features such as launching apps and creating macros. You can build multiple profiles (e.g., work, gaming, presentations) and export or import them across computers for easy setup.

Yes. Prolo works alongside your existing mouse and keyboard with no interference — it simply acts as an additional input device, giving you gesture and macro control on top of your normal workflow.

Yes, you can use it on your left hand. The cursor coordinates stay the same regardless of which hand you wear it on. (If you want to use air gestures, you’ll need to set your preferred hand in Prolo Studio.)

And yes, you can also use two rings at once, just like having two mice connected simultaneously. You can use one ring for cursor control and the other for shortcuts, or run both purely as dual-hand shortcut tools.

Just a note: the two rings don’t sync with each other — each one connects to the host device independently.

No. The touchpad is positioned at the bottom of the ring, so it isn’t touched during normal typing. Smart detection filters also ignore light or accidental contact — the ring only responds to deliberate gestures.

Additionally, Prolo Ring includes multiple modes, such as Navigation Mode and Touch Mode, where the cursor remains fixed.

Prolo’s wide ergonomic band is designed for comfort during extended wear.

The thumb is remarkably strong and agile — it’s the same finger people use on game controller, guitar and piano for long sessions.

In contrast, mouse actions are short bursts followed by typing or reading, and are much less intense. Yet mouse use tends to cause more strain over time — we either rest our hand on it (causing wrist pressure) or constantly switch between keyboard and mouse (creating shoulder tension).

Yes. Prolo Ring can be used alongside your precision mouse as a powerful shortcut tool. This lets you keep your hand on WASD during gameplay while using taps or swipes to trigger actions — for example, throwing a grenade, switching weapons, or activating macros.

For CAD or other precision tasks, using Prolo Ring as a gesture and shortcut companion can help you avoid awkward key combinations and streamline your workflow.

You can charge Prolo in two ways:

With the included USB cable, which connects directly to the ring.

Or with the Ring Case Charger (included in Standard and Pro Editions), which both stores and charges your ring when not in use. It can charge the ring for up to 30 days of extended use.

A full charge takes about 30 minutes.

You can download both the manual and the Prolo Studio App at the Downloads section of the support page.

For devices without native Bluetooth, you'll need a standard Bluetooth adapter/dongle that plugs into a USB port.

Once the adapter is installed and recognized by the OS, the pairing process is the same as above.
Here are two options:

You can pair the ring with multiple devices, but it only connects to one at a time — this prevents accidental actions across different devices.
To switch between devices, just single-tap then press & hold on the Modstrip.
