Well, I’ll try to sum it up in a nutshell.
Working on top of HTML and depending on the platform, there are certain metadata that you need to include in your Webapp to function properly on a mobile device, in addition to being well responsive. There is documentation both on the Android how much iOS, for example, that guides you in this direction and also in the W3C.
In the iOS, the Safari has a shortcut to add the site on the start screen of the device, on Android, the Chrome also has this feature. But what will happen when launching is to open the browser at the address set. And as I mentioned above, each platform and browser can accept certain metadata that can hide bars or other browser features, such as Safari in the iOS for example.
Now, what the site you mentioned and many others also do, is to create a "native" application but with a simple WebView
in the Android pointing to a web address (note that on App Factory you download a file .apk), so none of the browser features are available. In iOS continues to open in Safari, but the metadata in HTML try to hide the bars.
Another example are some (or all) bank applications, where a good part of them work with one WebView
which points to a URL.
Anyway, I develop for these two platforms, so my examples were based on my knowledge of them, I don’t know if they’re like this in one Windows Phone or any other, but I believe they follow this same line of development.
Your application is done in what language? You can render it by sweating jQuery if it is done in JS. If you are PHP, use ajax to make the requests and keep the content in a DIV where you do not Posts , so the operation will be done by PHP together with ajax.
