So I bought mobile Odin and I heard you can use it to flash custom roms and you won't lose any data, apps, etc. Is this true?

well this all depends. usually roms come in a .zip format and cant be flashed through mobile odin unless theyre stock roms. you could however flash a kernel with a custom recovery and flash a rom from there though. but the preservation of apps and other user data depends on the rom... usually there are 2 choices, full data restore and no data restore. no data restore will keep all user data and full data restore will erase user data
