How can I get a Position on the map with Mobile Devices?

I've tried touchstarted, but it returns a screen position (which makes z=0) I want it to return a vector3 from the map for wherever they touch on their screen Any idea on how to do so?

Assuming where they touch it moves the 'mouse' to the coords of the touch you can get the position of where they touched with mouse.Hit

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = player:GetMouse() --gets the mouse
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")

uis.TouchStarted:connect(function()
    if mouse.Hit then --mouse.Hit is a cframe
        print('Player touched at '..mouse.Hit.p) --.p gets the position from the CFrame
    end
end)
