Disable AR viewing for Google model-viewer

I try to render a 3D model into a website but using Google model-viewer, however I only have high-poly glb format, which is not compatible to Iphones. Can I disable AR viewing for the model, so the visitors can only see the model in web browser, and will not be able to activate the AR view?

Yes, this is easily possible by removing the ar attribute from the component. You did not post your code, but I suspect it is set currently.

This is documented here.

You can also only allow AR for android, by setting only some ar-modes. This should allow all modes except for quick-look on iOS, thus ommiting the unsupported platform:

<model-viewer src="mymodel.glb" ar ar-modes="webxr scene-viewer" ar-scale="auto" camera-controls alt="..." skybox-image="myskybox.hdr"></model-viewer>

By the way: You can also convert your .glb file to .usd with this tool or directly online.
