Will deleting an app make the name available again?

At least add a User message to warn a User that he would lose the app name.

Hey @e.onwuejeogwu,

There is a warning of this when you delete your app.

Hi @johnny, I happen to agree with @e.onwuejeogwu. The message should better appear before you create your app so you donā€™t even get to this point at all.

This happened to me too, and I imagine it happens to a lot of brand new users like me. You come and excitedly create something with your ā€˜super duperā€™ app name thinking youā€™ll just wing it. And then you realise Bubble is not your average platform and you have to humble yourself and learn a few things. Then when you are finally ready to create that super duper app, you realise you need to start from the scratch. But then --surprise-- your super duper name is no longer available. You may be in for a full-blown super duper panic attack!

Luckily it turns out the app name itself isnā€™t that important based on some good info on this thread, but you donā€™t know this from the beginning and there isnā€™t a lot of information setting you up for this beforehand.

It would be a nice feature if you get a notice as you are about to create your app warning you to only use a name you plan to maintain. So say you are planning to just test things out you can use something like ā€˜test-appnameā€™ and make the real app with the real ā€˜appnameā€™ later.

Two cents.
