Open3D Viewer
Free viewer for STL, GLB, STEP — replaces Windows 3D Viewer
Free 3D file viewer for STL, GLB, OBJ, FBX, STEP, IGES and more. Direct replacement for Microsoft 3D Viewer (removed July 2026). Works on Windows, Android, iOS, and in any browser. No account, no upload — files stay on your device.
Hi PH 👋
I built Open3D Viewer because Microsoft removed 3D Viewer from the Store on July 1, 2026, and suddenly nobody on Windows could double-click an .stl or .glb without hitting "no app associated with this file."
Every alternative I found needed an account, a login, or a subscription — for the trivial task of *looking at a file*.
Open3D Viewer is the anti-that:
• Opens STL, GLB, OBJ, FBX, PLY, 3MF — everything MS 3D Viewer opened
• PLUS STEP, IGES, DXF — the CAD formats MS never supported
• Windows, Android, iOS, and a web version at open3d.app
• No account, no upload, no subscription, no watermark
• Runs offline once installed
Bonus features: point-to-point measurement, walk-through mode (step inside architectural GLBs), cross-section, HDRI lighting, print-readiness checks for STL/3MF, screenshot + animated GIF capture.
Would love your feedback — especially on which formats you'd want next.
