Add Confirmation Message before using Spells

I suggest to add confirmation messages before using spells in game, as sometimes I misclick the button and it results to the spell being used. It is quite irritating if you have a small screen or a large finger.

What I meant is that, a confirmation message should pop up before using in game spells, saying something like 'Are you sure that you'd like to use this spell?'. Options are 'Yes' and 'No'. If yes, then the spell will take effect.

i think that would be a little annoying. some other solution is needed

Maybe double tap? First tap will spawn toast "click again to confirm". Confirm in second tap?

I think it'll look better as floating text on where the spell was first clicked.
That says maybe:
"Confirm"/"Tap again"

ok i think we talk here about the ability buttons (bottom right)
and it is currently something similar: first tap selects (hoghtlights) the spell (and shows its text) and next tap activates it.
is it no enough?
(there is a confirmation already by selecting it.)
maybe there should be a next level?
1st: activates spelll (highlights it) - as now
2nd: shown an arrow above it indicating next click will ativate
3rd: ativates it.
but isnt it annoying pressing 3 times?

Isn't this about bought for gems spells - kill unit, duplicate, double power, reveal map?
If so, then even confirmation wouldn't be too much.

I agree.
So please clarify which buttons we are talking about

I thought we were talking about action spells.
If upgrade spells:
Then have a yes/no prompt, because it only requires a unit selection and one mistap to consume it.
Else:
I don't really find it necessary.
