Adding Virtual Try-On to Shopify in 5 Minutes
Shopify merchants can now offer immersive virtual try-on experiences without writing a single line of code. Here's how to get started with TryOn Virtual's Shopify app.
Step 1: Install the App
Visit the Shopify App Store and click Add app. Authorize the required permissions and you're ready to configure.
Step 2: Upload Your 3D Models
TryOn Virtual supports GLB, GLTF, USDZ, SPZ, and PLY formats. Upload your product models through the app dashboard. Our system automatically optimizes them for web performance.
Step 3: Enable the Theme Extension
Navigate to Online Store → Themes → Customize in your Shopify admin. Add the TryOn Virtual block to your product pages. The extension works with every Shopify theme — no custom coding required.
Step 4: Map Products to Models
Associate each product variant with its corresponding 3D model. This ensures shoppers see the correct frame, color, and size when trying on.
Step 5: Go Live
Publish your theme changes and your customers can immediately start trying on products in real-time.
Performance Optimization Tips
- Optimize 3D models to under 2MB for fast loading
