A haptic tactile smart watch for the visually impaired is provided. The tactile smart watch comprises a watch case having a tactile digital interface. One or more tactile push buttons are configured on an outer circumference of the watch case. The one or more tactile push buttons activate one or more functions associated with the tactile smart watch. One or more touch sensitive indicators receive one or more touch inputs from a user input. Each of the one or more touch sensitive indicators generate one or more haptic feedback in response to the one or more touch inputs. A sensing module receives electrical signals corresponding to the identified specific actions from the one or more touch sensitive indicators, and senses one or more application parameters based on the received one or more electrical signals. The one or more application parameters are communicated, via haptic feedback, numerically to the user using touch sensitive indicators.
