The Eyewear Leading Warby Parker use AR Virtual Try-On App.

Warby Parker is a premium eyewear retailer that was founded in 2010. Since then, they’ve become a leading name in the eyewear industry. They set themselves apart from the competition by designing, manufacturing, selling, and distributing all of their products themselves across the U.S. and parts of Canada. They use high-quality materials, and their prices are generally lower than the competition.

Warby Parker designs all of their frames in-house. They only use premium materials such as custom-designed cellulose acetate to ultra-lightweight titanium.

Also, they work with Verité, an independent, non-profit civil society organization to make sure their factories have fair working conditions.

But perhaps the most unique and appealing aspect of Warby Parker is their innovative online buying experience. Both their website and app are well designed and easy to use. They have a Home Try-On Program that allows you to try five different frames for free before committing.

About the App
The Warby Parker Mobile App has a 4.9 rating with over 200K customer ratings on the App Store.The app is very well designed, both in terms of aesthetics and user experience.

The app has several useful features that help you browse their collection of frames. We recommend starting with their frames quiz. Just answer a few quick questions, and they’ll show you a collection of frames based on your personalized results.

If you’d rather browse their entire collection, that’s easy too. Their collection is divided into Men’s and Women’s, and once you make your selection, there are some filters to help you narrow down your options, including:

→ Frame width
→ Shape
→ Color
→ Material
→ Nose bridge
→ Available for Home Try-On

If you see a pair of frames that you like, click the heart icon to add it to your favorites. The favorites function is super helpful when narrowing down your choices. It puts all of your top frames in one location. You can use the Virtual Try-On feature and swipe through your favorite frames to instantly compare them.
