Verifying Move Before Proceeding

Sort:

Hey, I'm relatively new to this chess site. And I was wondering if there was something I could enable in the settings that would protect me from accidentally moving in an unwanted direction during a game? A "Are you sure?" verification for example. I would often find myself carrying a piece while deciding a move and by accident, it would be dropped on an unintended spot and it's been difficult to manage. Especially while in the PROCESS of moving a piece from one spot to another, the click and drag is so sensitive that it'd just land in the wrong spot. Is there any way I can fix this?

Not in blitz. It does exist in daily chess, the games with 24 hour per move minimum time control.
