What feature would you like added?

Original request by email (06/07/2026)

I use your app to enter data, and I often have to type the same information repeatedly. To save time, I created a macro using a floating button. With a single tap, it automatically fills in the repeated information. I occasionally experience lag on my phone, and during that time I can't tell exactly where the macro is tapping. Sometimes it taps the wrong location, which causes errors.

I tried recording my screen with Show Taps enabled, and I also enabled Pointer Location in the Android Developer Options. Unfortunately, neither of these helps because the touch indicator is too subtle and difficult to see clearly in the screen recording.

Could you please add a simple option to visually highlight each tap location (for example, with a colored circle or ripple effect) while the macro is running? This would make it much easier to review the screen recording and identify where the incorrect tap occurred.

I believe this small feature would be very helpful for debugging and improving macro reliability.
