The best way to use autotouch with voiceover

Hi there, not sure if a question like this should go here, but here goes.
I recently jailbroke my ipad mini...it was off warranty anyhow since I got it back in 2013 so i thought why not.
I started experimenting with this cydia tweak called autotouch. i noticed that when voiceover is on, it will not register my touches. When it is off, it will. The problem is remembering where buttons are in apps or just purely finding them without speech. Have any of you ever experimented with autotouch and if so, what was the best way you found to record your macros?
