Before you run the shortcut, go to Safari or your preferred web browser and copy the URL of the website you want to turn into a web clip. If you know the URL by heart, you can obviously skip this step. It's good to only do this for sites you often use that don't already have a native iOS app or an optimized interface for "Add to Home Screen" bookmarks.
As an example, I'll create an app for the Gadget Hacks website. While Safari can generate an app icon for websites via the "Add to Home Screen" action, the shortcut we're using here will not, so you'll need an image to use for the icon.
In the shortcut, you can choose any image in the Photos app, so you can either download a photo from the web or use an existing picture. A square-sized image works best to fit perfectly, but the shortcut will automatically crop any longer-shaped images down. Third, the shortcut will ask you for access to your Photos app. Grant it permission, then choose the image you want to upload as your app icon from the photo picker that appears.
Developers use configuration profiles so that iOS users install and test apps that are not ready or won't ever appear in the App Store. If you're wary about installing profiles on your iPhone, you can review the WebClip payload XML that our updated shortcut uses below:. After you upload the app icon, you'll be redirected to Safari, where you'll be asked to allow a configuration profile to be downloaded to your iPhone. Hit "Allow," then tap "Close" when prompted.
The final step is to install the config profile you just downloaded. To do so, open Settings, and you should see a "Profile Downloaded" option near the top it only appears when a profile needs to be installed. Tap that, and you can then preview the config profile.
If you other Settings notifications, you will see "More for Your iPhone" instead. Tap that, and you'll see "Profile Downloaded. If you don't see this quick link, go to "General," then "Profile" or "Profiles" to find and open the profile you downloaded.
You can see that it contains a web clip on the profile's description, just as we discussed earlier. Tap on "Install" in the top right, then enter your passcode when prompted.
The next page will show a message from the developer, which simply lays out the last few steps you took. Hit "Next" to continue, then tap "Install" in the top right, and then again at the bottom.
Your profile is now installed. Your new web clip app will appear on your home screen. If you have iOS set to push new app installs to your App Library without touching the home screen, you'll still see this web clip app on your home screen since it's not a native app. However, you can still access the web clip from App Library. For the moment, the best thing one can do is open the file in a new window which the user can manually download — Diogo Sgrillo.
In that case, your answer and all others, by the way should be just a comment. GerardoFurtado I've updated the answer again to make it more clear. Not sure why you think it should be a comment, though. According my interpretation of meta. Is this still not possible? You can download a blob got from a base64 by using a atob function. You can save blob locally via FileSaver.

GerardoFurtado are you saying about FileSaver. No, I'm taking about Safari. There is no Safari 13 for iOS at the time of writing. You're taking about MacOS again. GerardoFurtado please check its released developer.
