The comparable Sophos Home for Mobile in the App Store requires a Sophos Premium account. But ...

If you don’t already have a Sophos account, there’s no charge and no pain in creating one. With a Sophos account, you can monitor all of your devices with a browser from anywhere.

And there is a free Sophos XG Firewall for home users - but it runs on a dedicated computer. Perfect if you have an old spare computer.
