How do I create a new app with the same name as a deleted app?

Hi there, @richard_1057… you used to be able to reuse the name of a deleted app, but you can’t do that anymore.

Will deleting an app make the name available again?

Hello folks! We’ve updated this behavior recently, so old app names are no longer available even after app deletion. Since these app names are used primarily for indexing purposes – that is to say, they’re not visible to your users after you’ve upgraded to a plan where you can place your app on a custom domain – we’ve chosen to do this to allow our team a better means of keeping track of deleted applications. We are also working on a way to allow our Success team to “free up” these app names up…

It might be worth contacting Bubble support to see if they can make the name available for you.

Best…
Mike
