If it works, Apple copies it soon enough...


There's nothing to copy. Apple's iOS Camera app already uses multi-camera image fusion in many cases. This app builds on the Multi-Camera AVCapture feature that Apple opened up in iOS 13.

So what's the value add here?


IIUC, it's the ability to export layered PSD files with images from multiple sensors.


Apple has done this (multi-camera/spatial fusion) since 2016, in addition to multi-frame/temporal fusion. The OS decides whether these techniques are worthwhile for any given shot based on context.

They might acquire it and have done it in the past.
