Why it exists

Make every tap visible after recording.

Tap Pointer works with videos you already recorded. Import an app walkthrough, bug report, product demo, training clip, or support video, then add a visual presentation layer your viewers can follow.

Core features

Built for app demos, tutorials, and QA videos.

Tap effects and touch markers

Place clear tap points exactly where the viewer should look, with bright visual effects that stand out on dark or light app screens.

Area highlights

Highlight buttons, forms, charts, and UI regions with timed rectangles so important parts of a screen recording are not missed.

Voiceover and source audio

Keep the original sound or record narration after editing, then preview the result before exporting a polished video file.

Local editing workflow

Tap Pointer edits videos selected from your device. It does not draw over other apps, record in the background, or capture touches from other apps.

Record first. Annotate after.

For product teams, indie developers, QA, and support.

Use Tap Pointer when a plain screen recording is not enough. It helps turn app demo videos, walkthroughs, onboarding clips, QA bug reports, training videos, and customer support recordings into clear visual explanations with tap effects, touch indicators, UI highlights, and voiceover.
