Hello,  
I use Shapr3D on Macbook Air. I open the “File\>Export\>Augmented Reality” section.  
The only one that appears under this option is “USDZ Export for Apple AR”.  
There is no “Preview 3D Model” option. What is the reason of this?

> Macbook Air M1  
> Shapr3D Version 5.40.0 (2174)

Augmented reality is a feature of the Apple mobile devices. You can still export to USDZ, and open it on a mobile device.
