The Nokia app requires a longer exposure time, encompassing multiple shots, which basically means that anything moving is a no-go. The quality of its pictures is theoretically superior, though, because the depth effect comes from the photos themselves, and not a simulation.

Google's version, on the other hand, works with only a single photo, so it's more versatile. It may suffer issues with quality, though (arising from the difficulties in accurately extracting depth values from a 2D image). That has yet to be seen.

This doesn't seem to be what everyone else is saying. Most people here are saying it takes multiple shots as you move the camera.

That is not true, Google version requires you to take a photo for several seconds while slowly moving phone upwards. Both methods take probably same amount of time.
