Forgive me - I’m not an apple guy

What’s the best way to have a vpn connection from an apple iphone or ipad to a fusionhub?

Hi @aquablue, to connect iphone to fusionhub using VPN you can setup Remote User Access using L2TP or OpenVPN

Thanks!

On my iphone under Settings → General → VPN I have the following options:
1.) IKEv2
2.) IPsec
3.) L2TP (so this looks like the best & only natively supported option.)

Is it worth installing the openvpn app on apple devices to enable openvpn vs. using the native L2TP protocol?

Here, “worth” sorta represents a value-laden question. I can say that we recommend – and use – L2TP on Apple devices without add-on software and that works very well to “tunnel in” to Peplink devices.
