How to show Touches and Pointer Location on Screen without Developer Mode?

Question

I am trying to use my phone as controller and my 42 TV as display. Chromecast is casting the thing.




  • I have tried Show Touches and Show pointer location as described here in Developer options. However, I do not want to keep Developer options active all the time. Also, some of the features fail too often, causing epileptic continuous blinking in different colours.

  • I do not have any other option (etc Show GPU view updates) on in Developer Options.



Phone: Oneplus 2

OS: CyanogenMod 13

Answer

No support for this in Android 6-7 by default without the developer mode.
