I placed 3d object to ARViewController after 3 seconds of placing object, then I want to rotate object by 90 degrees:

arView.scene.addAnchor(anchorEntity)

DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now()   3.0) {

    print("after 3 sec ! ")
            
    let radians = 90.0 * Float.pi / 180.0
    
    anchorEntity.orientation = simd_quatf(angle: radians, 
                                           axis: SIMD3(x: 0, y: 1, z: 0))
}

It works very well but the problem is that I want to smooth rotation , as you can see short video, it suddenly rotate which seem weird.

How can I do this?

Try move(...) instance method:

import UIKit
import RealityKit
import SceneKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {
    
    @IBOutlet var arView: ARView!
    
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        
        let box = try! Experience.loadBox()
        let entity = box.steelBox!
        
        DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now()   3.0) {

            let currentMatrix = entity.transform.matrix                
            let rotation = simd_float4x4(SCNMatrix4MakeRotation(.pi/2, 0,1,0))
            let transform = simd_mul(currentMatrix, rotation)               
            entity.move(to: transform, relativeTo: nil, duration: 3.0)
        }
        arView.scene.anchors.append(box)
    }
}
