User Testimonials
	Apple ARKit	Azure Object Anchors	Azure Remote Rendering
Likelihood to Recommend	Apple Apple ARKit is best where AR experience will enhance user understanding of the product. For instance, for a furniture app, AR via Apple ARKit can help users get an understanding of how the furniture will look. It also works well for use cases where we want to give human movement as an input for AR, so for instance for clothing apps that want users to see how they will look in a particular clothing style, etc. Incentivized Verified User Read full review	Microsoft No answers on this topic	Microsoft No answers on this topic
