Hi kmolodecki
Welcome to the Community Forums.
I am afraid that there is no WSA Mobile version for Windows Phone (of any version) and that has been the case for some time and I suspect that it will be so going into the future.
The reason for this is that Windows Phone is one of, if not the most, secure of the mobile OSes given the way that Microsoft lock down the kernel. Plus there is also the fact that with only 1% of the mobile market (hopefull soon to change) the miscreants who create malware are simply not interested in it.
There is already a request for this in the Ideas Exchange/Feature Request site HERE and you can leave a comment/kudo the idea if you like. The more kudos the more ideaas get considered by the Webroot Development Team.
Hope that helps?
Regards, Baldrick
