Trnio is a simple-to-use mobile phone application that converts your photos into 3D models. They let you create, share and discover 3D maps in minutes. Whether focusing on the details of a small object or capturing the gestalt of an entire environment, Trnio is up to the task.
In this article, we will show you how you can export your 3D-scans from Trnio into a compatible file format for upload onto the Object Viewer app.
Follow these instructions to find out how to export your 3D object from Trnio:
- Open the Trnio app on your device, then Sign-in with your Username and Password.
- If you do not have a TRNIO account, tap “Join Now” to create an account.
- Tap the 3D-scan you want to Export to open the object.
- If you have not yet created your object, tap the camera icon to start a scan.
- If you are new to Trnio, check out the tutorials at https://www.trnio.com/tutorial to get started creating your object!

- With your object open, tap the “Export/Share” icon in the top-right corner.
- With the “Export/Share” window open, tap “3D Mesh (OBJ)”. Trnio can only directly export OBJ files (contained in a ZIP archive with the associated textures).
- Download the object onto your device or send it to your email, SMS, or Classroom Management software of your choice.
Now you can sign-in to your Merge Account on the Dashboard and upload your 3D Object using the Object Uploader.
