About Torch AR
With Torch AR, anyone can build interactive augmented reality apps to share with the world. Create professional AR experiences with our powerful mobile AR design tool.
Built especially for mobile product designers who want to start adding AR features to existing apps or design new, standalone experiences, Torch's familiar gestures and tools make it easy for you to use your existing skills to design 3D experiences without prior 3D knowledge.
Place objects in space, modify their properties, add complex interactions, run through the entire prototype in Play mode, and invite friends to collaborate in real-time—all without ever leaving 3D.
Design on the device. Build prototypes that take advantage of ARKit features without constantly switching between desktop, headset, and device.
Work together in real-time from anywhere. Share for feedback to any device. Iterate on designs in minutes.
Torch's interactions system lets you go beyond simple AR sticker apps to build powerful multi-scene augmented reality experiences that engage and excite.
Add 2D files and 3D models with a simple gesture. Add complex interactions with a few taps. All without code or prior 3D experience.
