I have a Axpert MAX E. It has a WiFi AP constantly advertised. The only way to configure/disable that is via a .cn app! The app also allows remote control and monitoring of the inverter, via some unknown cloud server. I run everything local-only, so that is never going to happen.

What does it even mean for an app to be ".cn"? Apps typically aren't identified by DNS names. Did you have to download it from a .cn domain? Is it just a roundabout way of saying the app was Chinese?

Its not roundabout at all

Aren't they, at least on Android?

The gmail app is com.google.android.gm [1], and so on. The app ids are Java style reverse ordered dns names.

According to this definition, is there any meaningful difference between a ".cn app" and a ".com app" like com.zhiliaoapp.musically?
