Hello eppiec98,
 
Welcome to the Webroot Community,
 
You can Deactivate your PCs in the Account Console if necessary. Please look here
 
Please look here to install the Mobile version of Webroot.
 
  1. Search for Webroot according to your device:[list=1]
  2. Android: in your apps menu, select the Google Play Store and search for "Webroot," or follow this link, and install the Security - Free app.
  • Once the install is complete, open the app and tap Agree & Launch.
  • If you do not have a keycode, tap Skip and proceed to Step 4. If you do have a keycode, tap Activate and enter your SecureAnywhere keycode. Tap OK once the keycode has been activated successfully.
  • Tap Fix This Now to go through additional settings that can be activated. Please read each one carefully to see if it is something you want to enable or not before tapping either Fix This Now or Ignore. You can always change these options later in the settings.
  • Tap View Additional Features to go through additional features you have available. These will vary based on your subscription type.
  • After going through all the options, tap Finish.Webroot SecureAnywhere is now installed and protecting your device.[/list]At this time, there is not an antivirus option available for Apple iOS devices. Because of how Apple manages the apps available in their App Store, there is not a need for one currently. This may change in the future but at this time is is extremly hard/almost impossible to infect an iPad.
     
    If so, it's important to know that your iOS device will not show up under "mobile protection" in your account, regardless of what version of Webroot you have. SecureWeb and SecureSync are Webroot apps for iOS devices, but they are not anti-virus applications and thus will not appear in the mobile anti-virus portion of the account area.
     
    Webroot does offer two apps you can download from the App Store to backup your files and protect your internet browsing, called SecureWeb and Backup & Sync. You can find either of them by searching for "Webroot" in the App Store on your Apple iOS device. For more information on both of these products please use the information below.

    Webroot Backup & Sync (for SecureAnywhere Complete subscriptions only)

    Hope this helps?
