Show finger taps when recording on your Android device
In order to protect your privacy, the ScreenPal mobile application does not capture user gestures, such as taps and swipes, for display within the recorder. However, you can enable the Show taps functionality independently on your Android device and our application will capture these gestures, drawn by your operating system directly on the screen.
This article discusses how to enable this feature on your Android device. For information about Apple devices see our article titled Show finger taps when recording your screen on iOS.
