How about an app that makes calls, but you have to dial like you would with an old rotary phone.

If you make a mistake with the rotations it just connects you to a random one of your contacts.

Haven't seen it in a minute, but it definitely used to exist.

I would 100% both use and pay for it - forces me to put a bit more thought into phone trees, making me less likely to get lost in them.
