The best quality are Synology by far, you can basically use them as servers for all kinds of things - not sure if they specifically have an iOS app that does what you want as I don't have one myself - I've been considering them as a replacement for my HP microserver as I find Unraid a bit too much of a faff.
As you know mate, when you got kids although you can do a thing, more over finding the time, when you do have the time you do not want to be doing that faff you were not fussed with before. When you got that time you want to do your hobby/rest/game etc.
