Hello Christos, 

There is no direct way of simply copying a whole app to a different 
location and IP with a single command. It has to be re-created by making 
use of its available programming code. 

So, in reply to your question 1: the way to proceed, taking into account 
the above considerations: 

- Create a new app in the region of your choice using the console, mark its 
newly created ID. 

- Replace the old ID of your existing app in the app code, wherever 
applicable, with the new, desired app ID, then deploy it as if the old code 
belongs to a new app. 

- Access the newly deployed app at 
new_location_specific_app_id.appspot.com, that now works from its new 
location. 

In following the above steps, you may encounter issues related to the 
Datastore. Datastore is a multi regional resource. Still, it is  not truly 
global, as it remains in fact confined within a region group. One cannot 
change datastore location, after the initial choice, as stated in the 
“Google Cloud Datastore Locations” documentation page. A possible way to 
transfer data to the newly re-created project is by backing up in the old 
project and then restoring it where needed, i.e. in your newly re-created 
project, at the second location. 

In reply to your question 2: you can choose a custom domain of your liking, 
to use in place of *.appspot.com, as detailed in the “Using Custom Domains 
and SSL” documentation page 
<https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/console/using-custom-domains-and-ssl>.
