You can do it with the Apple app Shortcuts
This is the best you can do on iOS right now if you want to have a web app with a custom icon on your homescreen that doesn’t open safari if you tap on it: video.
It opens a little safari window which reloads from scratch every time you open it via the icon. Not ideal.
Adding it the normal way (which doesn’t let you customize the icon) makes it behave pretty much like a native app: full screen and keeps its state every time you tap on the icon.
Turns out it actually is possible: link
