Which export format should I use?

Open the scan's Share screen, tap Export a file, then pick the format that fits where the model is going. Without Pro you can export OBJ; scans made with your free Object scans can use every format.

Steps

1. OBJ: works in most 3D and CAD software.
2. GLB or glTF: for websites and game engines. GLB is a single file.
3. USDZ: for AR Quick Look on iPhone and iPad.
4. FBX: for Maya, 3ds Max, Unity or Unreal. DAE (Collada) moves models between 3D tools.
5. STL or 3MF: for 3D printing. They keep the shape only, no color. To 3D print an object, use Print in 3D on the Share screen instead. It makes the model watertight.
6. PLY: for MeshLab, CloudCompare and research. DXF: for AutoCAD, shape only.
7. Floor plans: open the scan, tap Floor plan, then the export button. PDF and PNG are free; SVG, DXF, CSV and JSON need Pro.
