How much space does a webpage app take up on an iPhone?

So i was helping my mom delete some of her stuff off her Iphone cause she had like no room left on it and she wanted more space. So she started deleting web page apps off her phone you know like the ones where when your in safari on your phone and it asks you if you wanna save the web page as an app on your phone. So i told her that would do nothing by deleting those apps because they're basically just links and so by deleting links your basically deleting nothing. I was just wondering if i was right and that web page apps really aren't taking up any memory.

You're right that they are links, and only take up a very small amount of memory.

A related type of app to get rid of is the kind that isn't any different from the website.

For instance, the Tripadvisor app is 99% the same as the trip advisor website, but it takes up as much space as a regular app. So apps like that can and should be deleted.

If words are left off at the end of a sentence, and that is all that is omitted, indicate the omission with ellipsis marks (preceded and followed by a space) and then indicate the end of the sentence with a period… If one or more sentences are omitted, end the sentence before the ellipsis with a period and then insert your ellipsis marks with a space on both sides… As in this example. A coded ellipsis (used in the construction of this page) will appear tighter (with less of a space between the dots) than the use of period-space-period-space-period.
