show gestures when screenrecording

Hello.


I am screenrecoding some tutorials on my iPad mini and it is important to have all gestures (taps, long taps, pinches, sliding, panning with two fingers) shown on the screen for the viewers of the video.


What I've tried and rejected so far:

  • I tried assistive touch but it requires to select the gesture I need every time I need to perform it. This doesn't work for me because I use a mixture of the gestures above, and the purpose is not accessibility, only demonstration. So unless there is another way to use assistive touch, that I am not aware of, this is not working for me.
  • I've also tried connected a mouse, but again that's not the result I need.
  • I have searched through the AppStore for an application to do this, but found none.


To put it simply: I need a dot to appear on the screen whenever and wherever a finger is in contact with the screen.


I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

iPad mini 6, iPadOS 16
