Is Umbrella Mobility still available for a single user?

Apparently it is no longer available.  Argh!  I just purchased prosumer and it no longer includes mobility, which is the main reason I purchased it.  Support is processing a refund for me. :(

Again, it's now called Prosumer.  You got the right service for your roaming devices.
From https://www.opendns.com/home-internet-security/

 

Are ransomware & malware getting past your antivirus?

Add OpenDNS Umbrella Prosumer to protect Windows and Mac OS X devices from threats on the internet, anywhere you go.

Unlike OpenDNS VIP Home, this service adds enterprise-class threat protection for your roaming devices — with an advanced user interface and internet stats — but it will not cover your entire home network. Rather than change your DNS settings, with Prosumer you install lightweight software onto your roaming devices to block malware, phishing, and botnets anywhere the device goes. Like VIP Home, it uses the world’s leading DNS service and provides parental controls — with even more customization options.

$20 per user (3 devices per user, max 5 users)

 

So, how is it not available?

It may still say that on the website but they haven't updated the messaging. If you buy it you will no longer have mobility iOS access, only the mac and windows client. From support:

"Thank you for contacting Umbrella Support and sorry to hear that you are having issues. Prosumer and all new Umbrella subscriptions no longer have mobile support. We are starting to phase out the mobile feature so your subscription only has roaming clients."

Ah, thanks for the feedback.  Good to know.  And yes, it says explicitly "Add OpenDNS Umbrella Prosumer to protect Windows and Mac OS X devices".  No mention about iOS or even Android.

But no worries, I may have a solution for you.  Check out iOS apps like this:
