Frequently Asked Questions
What GLB features are supported in USDZ?
Mesh geometry, PBR materials (base color, metallic, roughness, normal maps), and animations are converted. USDZ supports a subset of PBR properties — some advanced GLTF extensions like transmission or volume may not have direct USDZ equivalents.
Can I preview the USDZ file on iOS?
Yes. Open the USDZ file in Safari on any iPhone or iPad running iOS 12 or later. Safari will automatically launch AR Quick Look, allowing you to place the model in your real environment.
Are GLB animations preserved in USDZ?
USDZ supports skeletal and transform animations. Basic rotation, translation, and scale animations from GLB are converted. Complex animation blending and morph targets may not fully translate.
What texture formats does USDZ support?
USDZ supports PNG and JPEG textures. The converter automatically converts any unsupported texture formats (like WebP or KTX2) to PNG for compatibility with Apple's AR framework.
Why convert to USDZ instead of using GLB on iOS?
While iOS Safari can display GLB via web viewers, USDZ enables native AR Quick Look — the gold standard for AR experiences on Apple devices. USDZ files open directly in AR mode from Safari, Messages, Mail, and Files without any third-party apps.
