I'm playing around with iOS' webapps.

I'd like to configure the webapp to save to the user's home screen with a different url from the original web page.

On Android, you can change "start_url" in the manifest.json to achieve this.

The various customisation options on iOS seem to be less well documented. But I'm hoping there's a meta tag I can use, similar to this one that changes the web app title:

<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-title" content="[your title]" />

which is documented in this question.

As of iOS 11.3, Safari now supports web app manifests, making it possible to specify the start URL. Learn more here.
