Call confirmation with MacroDroid

Hello,

I need to create confirmation Macro before any outgoing call.
The problem is that I cannot find a way to insert some kind of confirmation action in-between "Call button" click and the actual call function, so I can place a confirmation action.

My issue is that sometimes I make accidental calls that cannot dismiss before the call happens. I have searched apps specifically for that purpose but could not find so I am trying to lean on MacroDroid for this purpose.

Help will be greatly appreciated!

I'm not sure you can stop the call after you press the button but before the call begins, I imagine you could use the reject call action to immediately end the call (or airplane mode if needed), then show a confirmation prompt with MacroDroid and start a new call from MacroDroid (make sure it won't trigger itself again though).

What you could do is a bit tricky but interesting if you are familiar with coding and/or MacroDroid.

1⁰- Create a database (dictionary) with all your contacts (from a VCF file you could update automatically every day)
2⁰- Display and select (or enter manually) the number you want to dial (Selection Dialog action)
3⁰- Ask for a confirmation before dialing this number (Make Call action)
