On OnePlus 6T, I use the native recording app, Game Screen Recorder, or DU Recorder to record my games. Each has its perks.
On Amazon Kindle, I use SmartPixel to record, upload to Facebook, download, and add a timer in a video editing software called ShotCut. I'm not sure if this specific game is on that device, though.
If you have a different way of recording and timing, please share!

All runs will now be retimed using https://github.com/Slush0Puppy/retime
This is an awesome tool that allows for quick, frame-perfect timing using YouTube! As such, timers are no longer required for runs.
The rules have been updated to include exact start and end frames.
Cheers!

One thing I had an issue with while retiming was that "0" and "100" can sometimes blur into other numbers. Usually I went with the frame that "0" is clear on, and the frame that "100" is blurred on. Since there is no hard ruling on the blur effect, runs may be 1 or 2 frames off. If the leaderboard gains excessive popularity, we will have to set the rule officially. Cheers!
Hey!
It seems like using ads for power-ups and checkpoints gives an unfair advantage since we've transitioned to using in-game timer.
I'm thinking of creating a new subcategory to account for this. Thoughts?
Hey y'all! This game is no longer available on the app store on iOS or Google Play. Meaning, everyone who is running this game has had it downloaded and hasn't deleted it. Save this game if you value it! I'm not sure if any emulators are available at this point.
Timing issue with "Free Fall" mode: Timing is currently based on decrement of your first snowball to snowball count hitting zero. This is for the sake of standardizing timing all the different sorts of modes. The issue with this is that a player who ends the game with more than zero snowballs left will have +4 seconds added due to Free Fall, whereas a player ending their run with their last snowball will stop timing before the ball bounces around and Free Fall begins. If the game gets more popular (which it probably won't, as it is currently undownloadable), we may have to figure out a different method for timing. But for now, we'll keep it as is! Remember to record from the beginning of the level to the results screen just to be safe, as timing rules could change.
These days I record using Streamlabs OBS and time with LiveSplit.

On Freerice FaceBook page: May 9 at 8:03 AM · The old Freerice site is going to shut down later this summer but we've now built a new home for the Freerice family at http://beta.freerice.com/ and our Android app in the Google Play store (with an iOS one coming soon)
If you haven't created an account on the beta, make sure to do that now!
All our loyal, high-achieving users on the old site, rest assured, your old scores have made a huge difference and for that, we would like to reward you with legacy status on the new site🏆

Thank you all for helping us achieve #zerohunger
So friends, it looks like the old site is shutting down, so the speedrun.com leaderboard might need to be archived. Once it officially shuts down, I think I'll request we create a new leaderboard for Free Rice 3.0. I've kept a well-documented spreadsheet of all runs with grain totals, and I'll definitely keep that up as we move into the new website and app. As of today, we've fed 19 people as a group and I'm grateful for your help!
By the way, the new app is funky fresh and looking good. I recommend you download it. If you need any help with finding resources for recording on mobile, hit me up in the mobile speedrunning discord! https://discord.gg/bpY8zeB
Or hit me up in the Free Rice Discord, link in the sidebar! Let's keep up the runs for rice!
I'd love to see a leaderboard for playing and beating all three games in one run :)
I'm on Samsung S7 and use Game Screen Recorder to record my runs. I sometimes stream my runs using the YouTube Gaming app, which means no internal storage is needed. No timer is necessary for this leaderboard since we use https://github.com/Slush0Puppy/retime to retime runs accurately to the frame.

There you will also find a great community of 350+ runners, competitions, and a ton of new games to play!
Hey! All current runs have been retimed using https://github.com/Slush0Puppy/retime
I was head beta tester of this tool. It is the most accurate retiming method I've seen on speedrun.com. We would love if you used it while retiming runs!
If you have any timing disputes, please let me know! All retiming info is located in the comments of each run.
Edit: @BattleMaster brought up that Leap Day now has an in-game timer. All runs using an updated version of the game will be based on IGT. The earlier runs on the leaderboard without IGT will use Slush's Retimer.
Edit (August 2019): All RTA runs using an old version of the game have been retimed using the new start time rules. Instead of starting time on level select, we start time on the first hop frame. This matches when IGT starts.

Hey, DAN-BALL series mod here. @UprightThumbs can you add me as mod so I can add categories for start and end timing?
