Free online glTF viewer
View .gltf models with their .bin and texture files, or a single .glb, right in your browser. Free, no sign-up, and your files are never uploaded.
What is a glTF viewer?
A glTF viewer opens glTF 2.0 models, the open 3D format from the Khronos Group often called the JPEG of 3D. A .gltf file is JSON that references separate .bin and texture files. The ReactVision glTF viewer takes the .gltf and its files together, packs them in your browser, and renders the model with PBR lighting and animations, with nothing uploaded.
How to view a glTF file online
- Step 1
Choose your model
Drag a .glb file, or a .gltf with its .bin and textures, onto the viewer, or click it to browse your files.
- Step 2
Inspect it
Drag to rotate, scroll or pinch to zoom, play its animations, and check the triangle, mesh and material counts.
- Step 3
See it in the real world
Create a free ReactVision account to render the model in real environments, then ship it in AR or VR.
GLB vs glTF: which file do you have?
Both are glTF 2.0, the open standard for real-time 3D. The difference is packaging, and this viewer opens either.
| GLB (.glb) | glTF (.gltf) | |
|---|---|---|
| Encoding | Binary | JSON text |
| Files | One file, everything embedded | .gltf plus .bin and texture files |
| Best for | Sharing, the web, AR and apps | Inspecting and editing by hand |
| Standard | glTF 2.0 (Khronos Group) | glTF 2.0 (Khronos Group) |
| Open it here | Drop the .glb | Select the .gltf with its files |
A 3D viewer built on a real XR engine
Most online viewers are built on a web-only library. This one runs the Viro web renderer, the same engine ViroReact uses to render natively on phones and headsets, so what you see here is a preview of how the model behaves in a ReactVision app.
Private by design
Your model opens in your browser and never leaves your device. Nothing is uploaded, stored, or shared.
PBR lighting
Physically based materials, image-based lighting and tone mapping, so metals, roughness and colour read the way they will in an app.
Orbit, zoom, animate
Drag to rotate, scroll or pinch to zoom. Embedded animations play automatically, and you can switch between them.
Model stats at a glance
See file size, triangle count, meshes and materials, a quick check before a model goes into a mobile or headset app.
GLB and glTF 2.0
Open a single .glb, or a .gltf with its .bin and texture files selected together.
The same engine as your app
Rendered by the Viro web renderer, the engine ViroReact runs natively on iOS, Android, Meta Quest and Apple Vision Pro, compiled to WebAssembly.
From a model on screen to a model in the room
Viewing is the first step. With a free ReactVision account you can render the model into real environments, place it in AR, and ship it in a native app.
In the Editor
Import the model into the browser-based ReactVision Editor, test it in real environments, add interactions and anchors, and preview it on your phone with StudioGo.
With your coding agent
Connect the ReactVision MCP to Claude, Cursor or Codex and ask it to render your model in a real environment, drop it into a ViroReact scene, and validate it on device.
