Say you compose a text and hit send...then you realize you DON'T or DIDN'T want to send it....with my flip phone I used to be able and quickly hit END...with the android there is no way to "stop" it quickly...does anyone know of an app that will ask you "are you sure you want to send" or something similar?

Thx
 
No, it's not about drunk texts, this is a serious issue for me. I have prediabetes so my blood sugar drops after a few hours making my hands very shaky. Also, I'm often up at night typing texts that need to go out in the morning and saving them as drafts till I get up in the morning just because I'm really busy. I can't count how many times I have had a message about work go out at 2:30 AM and ticking everybody off.
