Dialing Direct from External Apps

When I'm in Google Maps and I'm searching for a local business (i.e. Starbucks) and I want to call this business...I click call and I'm directed to DW with the number and the dial pad. Is it possible to skip this and directly dial the number...So click call and the call begins?

Hello
Can be skipped, but this is more dangerous.
This will lead to any program can call directly.
The map uses this API, and calling this API does not require any permission
ACTION_DIAL tel: 123 - Display the phone dialer with the given number filled in.
However, direct dial should use this API
ACTION_CALL tel: 123
