A .app domain
The apps on your smartphone let you do everything—from chatting with friends to paying utility bills. With over a million mobile apps and a market that keeps growing, “apps” are part of everyday life. For developers, designers, and entrepreneurs racing to create the next big thing, the .app domain is a prime showcase for projects—launched or still in the making.
The benefits of a .app domain
A .app site is the “home” of your application: if you have already invested in an app, you can use a .app site to update users on new releases, share official download links, and reviews from those who already use your app.
If you're not a developer but have a brilliant app idea in mind, start sharing your idea on a .app website and look for someone who can make your project a reality.
For those who are actual app developers or designers, this domain immediately and specifically identifies their profession and can be an excellent showcase for their work.
How to register a .app domain:
The .app extension requires HTTPS and an SSL/TLS certificate for the site to load correctly.
Naming rules:
- A .app domain must be 3–63 characters long;
- It may include letters A–Z, digits 0–9, and hyphens (“-”), but not at the beginning or end.
Search for the domain name you want to register with a .app extension, free of charge. See if it’s available and buy it at a special price. The basic plan includes DNS management and Swite. If you purchase hosting to publish your site, a DV SSL certificate is included and already active, manageable from your domain control panel. If you purchase the domain only (with or without email), you’ll need to install the SSL certificate on third‑party services and configure DNS from the control panel. The Redirect service is not available for this extension.
