Epiphany 3.4 is quite old, but I think you can probably use the 'save as
web application' functionality, which creates a custom launcher with the
URL of your webapp and doesn't show browser buttons, just your app.

You can also locate your epiphany.desktop file, make a copy of it in
$HOME/.local/share/applications and edit the Exec line to launch
epiphany with the right URL parameter (use -p for private mode, a
session that doesn't store history or cookies).
