Inception app – moar plz?

Does anyone even know about the Inception iPhone app?

Inception was an awesome movie, but was not immune to this. There was an Inception world bending app that took pictures from your current location on google maps and overlaid them on the sky from a photo from the phone’s camera. It was gimmicky and didn’t work very well. Once the hype from the movie died down, it was deleted.
