Noticed after posting this that actually executing a takeback doesn't seem to be an option on the iOS apps either, not just creating the game with the option. Both would be a welcome addition - I really want to use this option in games with my son, and great for teaching games in general as well.
On the iOS app it would be nice to have the option to start a takeback game in addition to the existing rated and unrated options, similar to the way it works on the web site. Any chance of making that happen in a future release?
