Hi there,
To add a domain name to your static site deployed on the App Platform, go to https://cloud.digitalocean.com/apps, click on your app, and click on the Settings tab. Then, click the Edit link to the right of Domains, and the Add Domain button.
On the Add Domain form, enter your custom domain name at the top of the form in the text area under Domain or Subdomain Name, then click to proceed.
You will be given a choice to delegate your DNS management to DigitalOcean or to point to your app by adding a CNAME record to your domain configuration. You can follow the steps on how to configure your DNS records here:

Let me know if you have any questions!
Best,
Bobby
