Question

Is there a way to pause app?

I do not want to destroy the app. I just want to pause it, similar to heroku heroku turning on/off dynos. I don’t need the app now. It’s just ridiculous to destroy the app and reconfigure later on.

Hey @whyusername,

Unfortunately, there is no feature at this point however it’s a really great idea and would be super useful.

The best thing to do to get your voice heard regarding this would be to head over to our Product Ideas board and post a new idea, including as much information as possible for what you’d like to see implemented.
