Thanks for looking at this Dean. It's very much appreciated. 

Just to provide context; we do a lot of work with brands creating USDZ AR product previews for their website and ecommerce platforms. AR QuickLook has been awesome for this and our clients see huge benefit. An AR product preview page can boost conversion rates by 30% or more. Which is a huge deal for many brands! 

This all works flawlessly when viewing websites in Safari.

However, many of our clients drive large amounts of their traffic via social (paid, owned and earned), and a lot of this comes from apps like Facebook and Instagram.

Sadly, all of this traffic misses out on an AR experience - or even worse, gets a broken experience. 

Compounding the issue is that there's no way for a website to easily 1-click transition the user out of the WKWebView and over to their proper browser, as mentioned here:

AR QuickLook support in WKWebKit would be a MASSIVE benefit to many brands and users alike. 

Thanks for listening ;)
