A .app domain for apps and digital products

## The idea behind .app

.app is a generic extension launched in 2018 for apps and digital products. Like .dev, it is on the HSTS preload list, so every .app site opens only over HTTPS. Visitors understand right away that there is an app behind the address.

## .app domains: frequently asked questions

### Why does a .app domain require HTTPS?

Because .app is on the HSTS preload list built into browsers, which open a .app site only over a secure connection. When you connect it to your Premium website here, the SSL certificate is included, so there is nothing for you to do.

### Do I need an app in the App Store to buy a .app?

No. Anyone can register one, also for a web app, a product page or a project you have just started.

### What name should I pick for a .app?

The name of your app, as short as possible. Do not repeat the word app in the name: taskpilot.app reads better than taskpilotapp.app.

### Can I use my .app domain with a website built here?

Yes. Create your website for free, turn on Premium and choose Connect to a site under Domains. We add the DNS records and the SSL certificate, so your .app address opens over HTTPS within minutes.
