Well it is certainly up there in terms of quantum theory along with the Copenhagen interpretation, and some quantum physicists definitely believe this, so considering it is a joke app and mostly a thought experiment I think we can say these statements are accurate enough.

I've never had a satisfactory answer to how a cat can be both alive and dead at the same time with the competing Copenhagen interpretation - however I will leave this debate to researchers in quantum mechanics who understand the maths of quantum physics better than my knowledge of quantum dead cats.
