How to Revert Your Bubble App to the Default Bubble Subdomain

If you have been using a custom domain for your Bubble app and wish to revert to the default Bubble subdomain (e.g., appname.bubbleapps.io), follow the steps below. This guide also includes troubleshooting tips and additional considerations to ensure a smooth transition.

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Open the Bubble Editor - Log in to your Bubble account and open the editor for your app.

  2. Navigate to the Settings Tab - In the Bubble editor, go to the "Settings" tab.

  3. Access the Domain/Email Section - Within the "Settings" tab, click on the "Domain/Email" section.

  4. Remove the Custom Domain - Click on the "Delete this domain name" option to disconnect your app from the custom domain.

  5. Verify the Default Subdomain - Once the custom domain is removed, your app will automatically revert to the default Bubble subdomain (e.g., appname.bubbleapps.io).

Troubleshooting

If you do not see the changes immediately or encounter issues, try the following:

  • Clear Your Browser Cache - Redirection to the custom domain may be cached in your browser. Clearing the cache can help reflect the changes.

  • Check DNS Records - Your custom domain will still point to Bubble's servers until you remove the associated DNS records from your domain registrar. While this does not affect the availability of the default Bubble subdomain, it is recommended to update your DNS settings to avoid confusion.

Additional Notes

  • Incorrect Domain Scenarios - If you accidentally added a domain that isn’t yours, follow the same steps to remove it and revert to the default Bubble subdomain.

  • Contacting Support - If the issue persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to Bubble support for further assistance.

By following these steps and tips, you can successfully revert your Bubble app to the default subdomain and resolve any related issues.
