Quick Look is the reason Web AR on iPhone feels so smooth. The user taps the AR button on a website, the system switches to the camera, detects floor surfaces and drops the model in at real scale. No app install, no account. The same path works on iPad and Apple Vision Pro.
For WordPress sites running Elementor, PausAR Viewer handles the Quick Look trigger automatically. Drag the widget into any page, upload your USDZ and GLB files, and the plugin detects iOS devices and launches Quick Look directly from Safari. The same widget covers Google Scene Viewer on Android, so one setup serves both platforms. If you only have a GLB and need a USDZ for iOS AR, our free GLB to USDZ converter does the conversion in the browser.

No. Quick Look is part of iOS and always available. The AR button on a properly built page launches Quick Look directly in Safari, with no extra setup for the user.
For AR, USDZ only. For 2D content, also PDF, images and Office documents.
Quick Look requires USDZ, not GLB. Use the free GLB to USDZ converter to generate one in your browser, no upload to a third-party server.
