Hi, I’m currently on Heroku and I can’t disable default domain name in an app. It is possible to disable defaut domain name on a DigitalOcean app and put my custom domain ?

Quick update here, App Platform now supports subdomain routing, which also allows you to disable an app’s starter domain. For setup instructions, see How to Manage Domains in App Platform.
Hi @Lukkyz,
You can add a custom domain to an app, see: How to Manage Domains in App Platform.
It is currently not possible to disable the default assigned hostname however you can add a check in your app code to redirect requests to your custom domain.
Hi @lukkyz,
In a way, yes. As Heroku at this time, you can’t disable the default domain name in your app however you can create a rule to redirect all requests to a domain specified by you. By default, your app will be given a sub-domain on ondigitalocean.app. You can also register a custom domain.
