How can I add a link to my app on the homescreen

On iphone my native app has an URL, so that if you type an url starting with myapp:// it will open my app and it will handle the URL and go to the relevant place.

Is there a way to get these urls as a web app bookmark on the iphone's homescreen?

EDIT: To put it another way, I want add a webapp to link to my native app.

It is possible to add Web Clips without going into Safari, and to specify a custom URL. But the Apple docs say that Web Clips will only work if the protocol is http or https (i.e. not my app://)

This is not possible. Never will be, as duplicates may occur then, e.g. two web apps with goatse://…, as Apple cannot check web apps.
