Pretend Elevator for Kids

I created this app because my son loves riding in elevators. We would visit elevators everywhere we went, and at home he started pretending that closet doors and large curtains were elevators. I wanted a simple app that could bring those creations to life without being complicated or distracting.

Unlike elevator simulator games, this app is designed especially for younger kids and pretend play. The goal is to encourage imagination and real-world interaction. Kids can build their own elevator, lean a phone or tablet against the wall, and use the app as the control panel.

The app includes realistic elevator buttons, sounds, and simple controls that are easy for young children to use on their own. I intentionally didn't add animations, because when I tested them out, my son would always focus on the app rather than continuing with pretend play.

Now my son creates entire buildings around the house and spends hours pretending to travel between floors. I’d love to hear how your kids use the app too, so feel free to leave a review and share your ideas.

If you have suggestions for new features or improvements, feel free to send me a message. Thanks for checking out Pretend Elevator!
