Your users who have installed via the old URL will no longer get access, I think. ---

Correct. They’ll receive a “page not found” error. ---

I believe as long as you change the name record within your hosting site to the new URL, you should be fine. ---

If the url that was used to install the app ever changes or goes away, then the app will be longer work. Just like a bookmark for a website. If the url starts redirecting to a new app, whether it’s a custom domain url or a Glide url, then the user should start seeing the new app since it’s the same url to them. ---

so based on that, If i duplicate the app,delete the original and gave the same url to the clone. it will work the same? even to those who installed the app? ---

In theory it should. You can always try it with a couple of test apps. At most, it may require them to sign in again.
