This is a setting option that enables you to configure whether to allow users to create apps that do not belong to any space.

Apps are placed either on Portal (top page) or in a space. "Apps that do not belong to any space" refer to the apps that are placed on Portal.

• If this checkbox is selected:
  Users can create both apps that belong to a space (in-space apps) and those that do not belong to any space.
• If this checkbox is not selected:
  Users are only able to create apps that belong to a space (in-space apps). Users cannot create apps that do not belong to any space. Deselecting this checkbox will not affect any existing apps.

What is an in-space app?

An app group is always set for an app. When you create an app, it is automatically set with the app group specified as the default app group, though the app group can also be changed. However, the "Public" app group is always set for the apps that belong to a space (in-space apps), and you cannot change the app group for these apps.

If you deselect the Allow users to create apps that do not belong to any space checkbox, users will only be able to create apps that belong to a space (in-space apps). This means that apps created will always belong to the "Public" app group, and you cannot change the app group for the apps. In other words, if you deselect the Allow users to create apps that do not belong to any space checkbox, it means that you will not allow users to create apps that do not belong to the "Public" app group (including apps that belong to the "Private" app group).

If you are using some apps that belong to an app group other than the "Public" app group, please take this into consideration before configuring the setting.
