I tried to cover my Ipad; and it only downloaded a secure browser version of Safari; which I think is terrible and do not use. Tried to log in to have access to stored passwords on the laptop; tells me I cannot complete that function...

Hi DwightFDavis
 
Welcome to the Community Forums.
 
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.
 
Have a look, at this KB Article on the subject, and this one if you require the added functionality.
 
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 that helps?
