My run https://www.speedrun.com/2048/run/y92x1evz got denied for not showing touch.I s there even a way to show touch on ios? I recorded with my phone and the only setting I know of is microphone on or off. Also on a side note, WR for many touch catagories doesn't show touch either and is run on pc. If you listen to the audio, it sounds very similar to a keyboard. (this run): https://www.speedrun.com/2048/run/y89x35dm

I believe certain applications will display where you are touching on iOS. The alternative, and what I plan to do if I ever get around to it, is to have a camera pointed at my phone. Either are adequate proof for touchscreen runs.

Much of the leaderboard is under review and some verified runs may become rejected in the future to conform to the rules that have been brought about after some current runs were approved.

Unfortunately, displaying touches is one of the only safeguards that we have against people cheating with touchscreen runs. As you can see from the previous comments people were using keyboards attached to mobile devices and trying to pass them off as touch input runs. While it's easy to display touches on android, there is no built-in feature for IOS. The best solution is to have a second camera filming the touches as you play the game. I completely understand that this really inconvenient, and as a result there only a handful of people who actively run in this category. Hopefully, Apple will add this feature some time in the future, but I've been waiting 2 years and I'm not holding my breath.
