Remember me login for iOS Home screen webapp launch

So I’m using the remember me example from Xojo (http://www.xojo.com/blog/en/2013/09/secure-web-app-login-screens.php and it works fine except when I launch the web app from an iOS home screen. The username doesn’t seem to be recalled when using the blog’s example with iOS home screen web launch. Are cookies not stored the same?

I know this is a very old thread but I bumped into the same issue.

iOS doesn’t store cookies for web apps. I believe it expects storage to be done in HTML5 way as explained here:
