What methods are working for you guys (if any) to avoid auto-clicker apps?

any suggestions? how can I disable non-human clicks for my app

Not really Kotlin specific;

Some auto-clicker apps, do so using accessibility services.
See:
https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/accessibility/service

In your app, you can detect if the interaction is done via an accessibility service;
And block non-trusted services.

But you cannot detect this:
