In this answer I use System.Security.Cryptography.DataProtectionScope.CurrentUser
to encrypt a string on Windows. Is there an equivalent for iOS and Android, i.e. a certificate associated with the device/user that could be used to encrypt a string so I don't have to make up a key or certificate myself?

In iOS , you are not allowed to identify a user by the device or any device identifier at all, it is against the policy. You should instead create a UUID and save that as a reference.

In Android you can use KeyChain for this – Meenal Apr 06 '17 at 04:48
