How to show touches/taps when screen recording?

I'm trying to make instructional videos, but I cannot get it to show in my screen recorders. I have enabled AssistiveTouch in the settings and even updated to PadOS 18.4, but to no avail.

When using the touch screen, your touch-input won't be recorded. The workaround for this functional limitation is to use an Apple Magic TrackPad with your iPad (recommended), or a compatible mouse.
