Description
It would be great to have the capability of recording and replaying touches on mobile devices.
Additionally displaying the touch position in the playback with small circles like here :
This way we could for example start recording a VCR session for beta testers once the game is loaded, and upload it after 5 minutes to an online datastore ( e.g. POST request to Firebase ). Great for finding out where people get stuck.
Or is there any other reason this hasn't been attempted yet? Any other tools maybe that do this better?

Research direction
Start by reviewing flixel.system.replay.TouchRecord and the existing VCR recording and playback flow. Clarify how mobile touches should be captured and replayed, whether playback should show touch positions, and how a recorded session could be uploaded to Firebase. Done requires an agreed scope and working touch recording, replay, and playback indicators.
