      As long as you use reputable Android apps from Google store and IOS apps from the AppStore there is no need of firewall for the device.

      Nothing is totally safe in 2019. Even smartphone operating systems like Android and Apple.

      I recommend below apps
      NoRoot Firewall
      NetGuard
      AFWall+
