## Description

Augment is a cutting-edge ARCore-based Chrome extension that enables users to visualize 3D models in augmented reality directly within their environment.

## Review summary

Users praise the AR capabilities and ease of use, with a visually impressive viewer for pre-loaded content. The app shows strong potential, and some are willing to pay for a functional AR viewer. Recurring downsides include mandatory account sign-in with unclear signup flow, no support for importing own models, pricing concerns, performance issues, and a limited model library. Improving onboarding, enabling model import, revising pricing, boosting stability, and expanding the model catalog would help adoption.

### Pros

- Easy to use and responsive UI
- AR visuals and tech look impressive
- Functional viewer with pre-loaded models
- Potential as a paid AR viewer; users would pay for a working app

### Cons

- Must sign in / account required with unclear signup flow
- No import of user-owned 3D models; limited to pre-loaded models
- Pricing model is pay-to-use / expensive
- Performance and reliability issues (lag, not working temporarily)
- Content library is sparse / not enough models
