I went through several articles related to PWA on ios but still not able to figure out why I am seeing address bar after adding an app to the home screen. I would be glad if someone could help me with this.
meta tags in my index file
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">
<meta name="mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">

}
],

In case anyone stumble on this article. As of 04-2020 iOS does not read the manifest file to set the PWA screen mode. Instead one needs to add their meta tags:
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">
For viewing the app in full screen mode. And:
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-status-bar-style" content="black-translucent">
For setting the status bar the same color as page <body>. There are other options available: black and white.
