Braille Watch for Apple Watch

BrailleWatch is a simple Apple Watch app, that lets you see and feel the current time in Braille, using gentle haptic ticks and a clean, high-contrast dot display. A tactile watch app for Braille enthusiasts. It is not intended to replace TapticTime, as reading requires practice and is slower than Apple’s built-in haptic time.

BrailleWatch supports Direct Touch, so it works even when VoiceOver is on. You can use it also without Voice Over: No speech. No menus. Just time you can touch.

BrailleWatch divides the watch screen into four Braille cells:

Top-left: Hour tens

Top-right: Hour ones

Bottom-left: Minute tens

Bottom-right: Minute ones

Always start at the center of the screen, which is empty. Slide your finger diagonal towards one of the braille cells, and make a small circular or rotating move there, in order to detect the braille points. The watch will respond with a soft tap whenever you cross a raised (active) dot. 

Once the Braille area is activated, your finger movements are passed directly to the app for continuous tactile reading.

The interface is intentionally minimal, fast, and distraction-free.

Full 4-cell Braille time display
