❌ Common Rejection Mistakes:
❌ Missing date/time proof
❌ Hidden taskbar or menu bar
❌ No URL bar visible
❌ Low-quality, illegible recordings
❌ Mouse clicks or taps not visible
❌ Videos exceeding time limits (way too long)

Before Submitting Attachments:

When Recording:
Start with proof elements (date/time, URL), then show only essential navigation and bug reproduction

🎯 Pro Tip: Test your screen recording setup before the cycle starts. Verify all proof elements are visible, interactions show clearly, and quality is high. Desktop users: enable click highlighting in your recording software. Android users: enable ❝Show taps❞ in Developer Options.
