Connect any domain you own to your Rocket app so it is reachable at your custom address with automatic HTTPS. Custom domains are connected on Rocket's Vercel account. If you do not own a domain yet, you can [buy one directly through Rocket](https://dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4.mintlify.site/build/launch-web/buy-domain.md) (paid plan required). > [!NOTE] > > Connecting a custom domain requires a paid plan (Pro or above) and access to your domain provider account. Rocket tries to configure DNS automatically by default. For supported providers, it logs into your domain account with one-time permission and updates the records for you. If automatic setup is not available for your provider or fails, you can fall back to the manual method where Rocket gives you the exact records to add yourself. **Web Browser** ## Automatic setup (default) Rocket uses an automated flow to log in to your domain provider and configure DNS automatically with your permission. This works for supported providers. **1. Open the Production tab in the Launch panel** Click the **Launch** button in the top-right corner of your project, then click the **Production** tab. ![Launch panel with the Production tab selected.](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4/images/build/launch-web/custom-domain/web-browser/click-production-light.webp) ![Launch panel with the Production tab selected.](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4/images/build/launch-web/custom-domain/web-browser/click-production-dark.webp) Click the Production tab in the Launch panel **2.

Open the Production tab and select a version** Click the **Launch** button, select the **Production** tab, choose your version, enter your domain, and click **Next**. Complete the [Production Environment step](#set-up-the-production-environment) as described above. **2. Switch to manual setup** If automatic setup did not work or your provider is not supported, click **Go to our manual setup** on the automatic setup screen. Rocket shows you the exact DNS records to add. ![Rocket manual DNS configuration screen showing record type, host name, and required values to copy.](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4/images/build/launch-web/custom-domain/web-browser/manual-dns-records.webp) Manual DNS records provided by Rocket > [!WARNING] > > Remove any existing A and AAAA records for your domain before adding the new ones. Conflicting records will prevent your domain from connecting. Copy each record (Type, Host Name, Required Value). In a new browser tab, open your domain provider's DNS settings and add them exactly as shown. **3. Confirm you have added the records** Once you have added all records in your provider's dashboard, click **I have added all records above to my domain's provider** in Rocket. Rocket starts monitoring for the DNS changes. ![You're all set screen after confirming DNS records have been added.](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4/images/build/launch-web/custom-domain/web-browser/done-manual.webp) You're all set DNS propagation can take up to 48 hours. Once Rocket detects the records, your domain goes live automatically. **Mobile App** **1. Open the More tab** Open your app in the Rocket mobile app and tap the **More** tab at the bottom of the screen. ![More tab highlighted in the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen.](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4/images/build/launch-web/custom-domain/mobile-app/more-tab-in-rocket-app.webp) More tab in the navigation bar **2.

Add your domain** Tap **+ Add domain**, type the domain you own (for example, `example.com`), and tap **Add Domain**. Rocket adds the domain to your project and shows the DNS records you need. ![Text input for adding your domain to Rocket on mobile.](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4/images/build/launch-web/custom-domain/mobile-app/adding-custom-domain-in-rocket-app.webp) Enter your domain **4. Update DNS settings at your domain provider** Copy the DNS records that Rocket shows you. ![DNS records provided by Rocket for domain verification on mobile.](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4/images/build/launch-web/custom-domain/mobile-app/dns-records-in-rocket-app.webp) Copy your DNS records Open your domain provider's dashboard (you may need a web browser for this step) and add the records exactly as shown. **What to add:** * **Root domains** (e.g., `example.com`): Add two A records, one with host `@` (root) and one with host `www`, both pointing to the IP address provided by Rocket. * **Subdomains** (e.g., `app.example.com`): Add one A record with the subdomain as the host (e.g., `app`), pointing to the IP address provided by Rocket. **5. Verify your domain** Return to the Rocket mobile app and tap **Refresh** next to your domain. The status shows **Verification in process** at first. When Rocket detects the correct DNS records, the status changes to **Live**. Your app is now accessible at your custom domain. ![Rocket showing your domain verification status on mobile.](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4/images/build/launch-web/custom-domain/mobile-app/verification-status-in-rocket-app.webp) Verification status > [!NOTE] > > DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate. Your domain may not work immediately after setup. ## Fix conflicting DNS records If your domain is not connecting after 48 hours, you likely have conflicting DNS records. **1. Check your DNS records** Go to [dnschecker.org](https://dnschecker.org/), enter your domain, and select **A** as the record type. **2. Remove conflicting records** If you see multiple different IP addresses, log in to your domain provider's dashboard and remove any A records that do not point to the IP address Rocket provided. **3. Wait for propagation** Wait up to 24 hours for the changes to propagate, then check the domain status in Rocket again. > [!WARNING] > > Multiple A records with different IP addresses cause your domain to intermittently point to the wrong server. Keep only the Rocket IP address configured. ## What's next? > **[SEO & discoverability](https://dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4.mintlify.site/build/polish/seo.md)** > > Optimize meta tags and sitemaps so search engines find your site. > **[Analytics](https://dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4.mintlify.site/build/measure/analytics.md)** > > Track visits, pageviews, and traffic sources from your dashboard. > **[Privacy compliance](https://dhiwisepvtltd-5e04e6a4.mintlify.site/build/polish/compliance.md)** > > Set up cookie consent, GDPR banners, and a privacy policy page.
