The Guardian has an experimental iOS app that polyfills the Service Worker API. The way you'd use it is, roughly, change the INITIAL_URL variable to your home page, change the name / icon / etc. of the app, then release it on the App Store as an actual app.
If you have an actual iOS app already, then this is of course worse, but if you have something that works nicely as a webpage on Android with ServiceWorkers and you want iOS users to have some option at all, this is probably worth playing with.
