Description

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Yes, I'd like to have Heatmaps for Mobile similar to Web

Describe the solution you'd like

SDKs would automatically capture $autocapture events such as the Flutter SDK, see issue.
PostHog would show the Heatmaps per screen, so you can see the user's interactions, identify rage and dead clicks, if users are interacting with your CTAs, what to improve, etc.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

Thank you for your feature request – we love each and every one!

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked PostHog Flutter issue (#68) and the existing Web heatmaps documentation. Clarify how mobile SDKs should capture autocapture events and how PostHog should present heatmaps per screen, including rage and dead clicks. Done means the mobile capture and per-screen heatmap behavior are defined and implemented.
