Did the user access the app from an external app, let’s say Gmail or Facebook?

Can you tell him/her to copy the link, open it straight in Safari to see if it works?

In the “Action Edit…” menu, the bottom blue link in the second image, check if is present “Add to Home Screen”.  
If the iPhone is a corporate phone, might have a limiting profile installed.

Does the install option appears in Chrome? What’s the default browser? Last release of iOS allows to choose a different browser (instead of Safari) as default, if this is the case, try to revert back to Safari as default and check if the option is back again.  
BTW, reboot every time you make a change.

The picture is Google Chrome. The link must be opened in Safari to see the Add to Home Screen option.
