Here's a proposed setup that I just tested:

Prepare HTML

  1. Add these into the <head> to optimize fullscreen app on iOS: 
    <meta name='viewport' content='width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0'>
<meta name='apple-mobile-web-app-status-bar-style' content='black-translucent'>
<meta name='apple-mobile-web-app-capable' content='yes'>

Set up Guided Access

  1. Open iOS page and "Add Shortcut to Home Screen"
  2. Go to Settings > Accessibility, then turn on Guided Access.
  3. Tap Passcode Settings, then tap Set Guided Access Passcode.

Start a Guided Access session

  1. Open the app from home screen.
  2. On an iPhone X or later, triple-click the side button. On an iPhone 8 or earler, triple-click the Home button.
  3. Set options: Side Button ON Volume Buttons ON Motion OFF Software Keyboards ON Touch ON Dictionary OFF Time Limit OFF
  4. Tap Guided Access, then tap Start.

this works perfectly.

todo for me: set this up on all five phones.

note: on iPhone SE the home button is used instead of hold button for triple-click.
