I would like to know is somebody has gotten a solution about removing that banner when you create an app in google apps scripts... Is it necessary to buy a domain?

Hello!  The banner would not be shown to people in the domain if that is the route you go.

HOWEVER, what I have been extremely successful with is to EMBED the web app into a Google site!!  It works great!

Check this site out near the bottom: https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/web 

Good luck!

thank you very much, but the thing is... that when I EMBED my app in google site... it doesn't look very well, I would like the app appears in the whole screem, but I was not able to do that.

I tried differents solutions like iframe, css, warning no visible, but any of the worked as I wanted.

Many Thanks

There is a video about this over on the Learn Google Spreadsheets Youtube channel from 2 years ago. Check it out here:

Also, if Google Sites doesn't look good, there are other options. I believe Firebase does some free/limited hosting, and I think Github does too. You could also check out something like Netlify.

@Clark Lind - excellent link to Learning Google Sheets!!  I looked at that some time ago and that is where I found out how to put the app in a Google Site.   

Thanks for refreshing my memory!!

I think the real issue is about whether your Apps Script project has been verified by Google.
In order to do that, you need to create a new GCP project and associate the Apps Script project with the GCP project.
The issue with using a free/consumer account is that you don't have an "organization" like you have with a Workspace account.
I think that part of the issue is that Google can verify and identify who you are.
If you sign up for a Workspace account, then you need to identify yourself, partly because you need to make monthly payments.
It's easy for a free/consumer account to be created without really providing information about where you live and who you are.
If you want your Web App to be available to the general public, then you'd probably want a Workspace account anyway.
