You can do Mobile IPsec from iOS and some versions of Android:

And PPTP works also.

As for an App, you can manage the firewall fine using the web browser,
I'm not sure what having an App would actually buy aside from maybe some
bigger buttons to push.

We'd explored some options in the past but decided against it. At one
point we did look at making the web interface theme for mobile browsers
a lot more finger-friendly, not sure what happened to that. We had a
mock-up screen with some large icons, one per section, and some JS that
would let you pick the menu entries using those.
