I deployed my django app successfully on App platform. I added my root domain. The challenge I have is users who access web app with www included are shown a cloudflare page: ERROR 1: DNS RESOLUTION ERROR. I added www as a CNAME record but things are not working.

Hello, App platform can not redirect the www request to non-www request. Either you will have to configure the www domain in your App like you have set up the root domain or you can set up and droplet with Nginx or apache where you can redirect the www domain to the root domain.

But this does not solve the problem. It should be redirected to https://domain.com but it does not. With this configuration https://www.domain.com is also working without redirection.
Again the same question: How to make a redirection from www to non-www domain ?
