Hi Matthew,
You got it right: you would use your home IP address followed by the port number you set up to forward in your router. For example, if your home IP address is 8.8.4.4 and you set up port 1234 to forward, you could access the camera with http://8.8.4.4:1234. If your home IP address changes often, you can setup a dynamic domain name system at http://www.noip.com, which many routers can be configured to automatically update. I mainly use “LiveCams Pro” on iOS, but I’ve had luck with “tinyCam” on Android in the past. Many apps will ask for your external IP address and port number separately, in which case you wouldn’t need to combine it into one URL like above. I hope this helps!
And thanks for the link about encrypting the traffic!

I’m specifically wondering about viewing on an Android device. Is it a matter of going to http://myhomeipaddress:cameraport in a browser, or is there an app you know of that can handle this? Also, if you’re interested in further securing it, you can set up a reverse proxy to encrypt your traffic, as discussed at StackExchange here: https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/56779/securing-remotely-accessible-ip-cameras-that-do-not-support-https.
