It’s mainly for the browser to detect that your site is a secured domain. Glide or not does matter. But it helps with user using your app. Correct me if wrong. ---

I’m struggling with the same… The issue is that if you want glide app to be on the root domain (xxx.app) then you need to put the certificate where the app is hosted. But as far as I see, Glide doesn’t provide such option… So it looks like using .app domain, requires to have a host site somewhere with wilcard SSL certificate and publish glide app to the subdomain (yyy.xxx.app). I will probably check this option with card - landing page there with info about the app and then link to glide app on the subdomain. A bit complicated and a pity that you cannot put a Glide app on a root domain and secure it with SSL (https)… ---

> [@PawelSz](#): > > A bit complicated and a pity that you cannot put a Glide app on a root domain and secure it with SSL (https)… yeah you can. I have plenty of Apps deployed using a root domain, all with SSL. I don’t know exactly how the SSL part of it works, I just know it does work. I guess I’ve always assumed that the domain hosting provider takes care of the certificate 🤷‍♂️ ---

Hmm, OK, thx, then I need to dig a bit deeper. But thanks for letting us know that there are apps like that and it can be done 😉 ---

I have the same problem. I’m not seeing a workaround. It’s specific to the .app subdomain. Stumped. ---

I got it to work. I don’t know how, but I think there may be a delay for Glide’s SSL connecting to the servers involved.
