Simple 4-Step Onboarding

How .app Registration Works

Search live availability, choose your term and complete registration through the secure Knox ordering system.

search
1. Search Domain

Type your app, game, platform or product name. Knox checks live registry availability and formats the .app search cleanly.

check
2. Choose Term

Choose the available registration term. Add optional web hosting or professional email if needed, or continue with the domain alone.

user
3. Registrant Details

Enter accurate contact details for the registrant. These details form the ownership record held for the domain.

4. Manage in Knox

Once registration completes, manage renewal, nameservers and supported DNS options from your Knox account.

Every .app Website Must Use HTTPS

Google Registry includes the entire .app extension on the HSTS preload list. Browsers require an encrypted HTTPS connection, so a valid SSL or TLS certificate must be configured before visitors can open the website.

Before launch

Connect the domain to your hosting, issue a valid certificate and test the HTTPS version before sharing the address with users.

Using existing hosting

Confirm that your provider supports custom domains and automatic HTTPS. You can then point the required DNS records from Knox.

Honest SEO guidance: what a .app can and cannot do

A .app does not guarantee a search ranking. Useful content, technical quality and genuine authority matter far more. A clear, memorable .app can still help people recognise, trust and return to your brand.

Choose a Name Users Remember

Naming a Strong .app Domain

Keep the address close to the product name, easy to type and broad enough to survive new versions, platforms and features.

01

Keep it Concise & Punchy

Shorter names are easier to type on smartphones and remember.

Aim for 1 to 3 words (under 15 characters total). Avoid cluttering your brand name with unnecessary filler words.

tick
Do Example

taskflow.app

cross
Avoid

our-new-company-online.app

02

Pass the Radio Test

Ensure your name is easy to spell when spoken out loud.

If you mention the address in a podcast, video or conversation, will a listener know how to spell it without having to see it written down?

tick
Do Example

pixelnote.app

cross
Avoid

n0rth-star-online.app

03

Avoid Awkward Hyphens

Hyphens and double letters cause accidental typos.

Long strings, awkward hyphens and repeated letters make a domain harder to share in conversation, advertising and customer emails.

tick
Do Example

clouddesk.app

cross
Avoid

build-better-company-online.app

04

Choose a Name That Can Grow

Give the product room to add platforms and features.

A useful .app can grow from an early release into a complete platform. Avoid version numbers or device names that may become obsolete.

tick
Do Example

openboard.app

cross
Avoid

only-2026-local-app.app

Frequently Asked Questions

Your Questions, Answered

.app is a domain extension created for mobile apps, web applications, games, software platforms and related digital products. It gives the product a clear home for downloads, documentation and updates.

A new .app registration is £17.95 for one year. The renewal amount is £17.95. Prices are loaded from Knox and match the amount used at checkout.

Individuals, sole traders, companies and other organisations can register an available .app. Accurate registrant and contact details must be supplied during checkout.

Yes. Unlock the domain at its current registrar, obtain the transfer authorisation code and start the transfer in Knox. Keeping the existing nameservers in place allows the website and email to continue during transfer.

Registration is submitted electronically after a successful order. The domain normally appears in your Knox account quickly, although DNS changes can take additional time to update across different networks.

Yes. A domain registered with oXnames can point to our hosting, another provider, a website builder or your own DNS service. Nameservers and supported DNS records can be managed from Knox.

Google Registry includes the entire .app extension on the HSTS preload list. Web browsers therefore require HTTPS, so a valid SSL or TLS certificate must be configured before visitors can open the website.

The extension does not create an automatic ranking advantage. Search visibility depends more on useful original content, technical quality, links and reputation. A relevant .app address can still make the product easier to understand and remember.

Yes. Use nameserver or DNS controls in Knox to point the domain to your existing website and mail provider. You can also add oXnames website hosting or professional email separately without changing the domain registration itself.
