Lovable + your own domain
How to connect a custom domain to Lovable
Built an app with Lovable and want it on your own domain instead of the default URL? You register a domain, point its DNS at Lovable, and verify it resolves. Here's the whole process, with no fabricated record values - Lovable shows you the exact ones to use.
Step by step
-
1
Get your domain
Register a new domain (see the price up front) or use one you already own. You do not have to buy it through Lovable - any registrar works.
-
2
Add the domain in Lovable
Open your Lovable project and add your custom domain under its domain / publish settings. Lovable then displays the DNS records it needs.
-
3
Add the DNS records at your registrar
Copy the records Lovable shows you - typically an A record for the root domain and a CNAME for the www subdomain - into your registrar's DNS panel, then save.
-
4
Verify and finish
Give DNS a little time to propagate, run the free DNS check to confirm the records are live, then complete the domain verification inside Lovable.
The exact DNS record values come from Lovable itself - it shows them once you add your domain. Never guess them; copy the values it gives you into your registrar's DNS panel.
Lovable custom domain FAQ
Can I use a custom domain with Lovable?
Yes. Lovable lets you publish a project to your own custom domain. You add the domain in the project settings and point your DNS at the records Lovable provides.
Do I have to buy my domain from Lovable?
No. Register the domain anywhere and simply point its DNS to Lovable. Registering separately usually means clearer pricing and you keep control of the domain.
Which DNS records does Lovable need?
Lovable shows the exact records when you add your domain - usually an A record for the root and a CNAME for www. Always copy the values it gives you rather than guessing.
My Lovable domain is not working - what should I check?
Run the domain through the DNS check to see which records are live. A missing or wrong A / CNAME record, or DNS that has not finished propagating, is the usual cause.
