How you set this up depends in part of whether you use ReadyCloud or not. I don't use it, instead I use FTP (actually FTPS).
You can use your login with FTP, and get to your home folder. There are several apps that can handle this, including ES File Explorer (android) and goodreader (ios).
You do need to forward some ports to the NAS in the router, and get a dynamic DNS name (noip.com will give you a free one).
Personally I allow all family members full access to all files, so my security is set differently from yours.
