Heroku - custom domain DNS

I am a complete newbie when it comes to redirecting etc.

I bought a domain (mydomain.co) and I have a heroku app (mydomain.herokuapp.com) (upgrading to paid in the upcoming month). What I want to do is to be able to access the heroku app after entering the domain url and stay o this domain, and not be redirected to mydomain.herokuapp.com.

My settings for the domain look like this (I translated it myself, so there may be some mistakes):

enter image description here enter image description here

With this settings, I can access my app but it is displayed in a frame, what's more - some of the pages do not work.

What I want to do is to be able to type mydomain.co and display mydomain.herokuapp.com but as regular site, and not inside a frame. What options should I choose?

Another thing is - will I be able to use the domain (which I paid for) and do the redirect if I do not buy a hosting from the company?

PS I added custom domains to my herokuapp and read their [guide], but I still do not understand.3.

Here are also my domain records - I believe it has something to do with this, but it so hard to test it as those DNS changes take some time.

You should remove your redirection. You also need to put a CNAME on mydomain.co with value mydomain.herokuapp.com.
