[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1947549, member: 190607"] iOS apps can only be downloaded from the App Store (assuming that you haven't jail-broken your phone). Every app is vetted by Apple to be free of malware or malicious function. So what malware are you expecting Malwarebytes to find? In fact, a legitimate anti-malware program (if one existed) couldn't even run under iOS. Why? Because iOS is so secure, it doesn't allow apps to access other apps. So an anti-malware program can't even do a scan under iOS. [URL unfurl="true"]https://macmost.com/forum/is-there-any-need-to-run-an-app-such-as-malwarebytes-on-ios-ipados.html[/URL] If you have read my past answers to questions about Mac anti-virus applications, you will recall that I don't trust Malwarebytes as a company. This is one of the reasons why. They are trying to cheat you. I consider them to be a dishonest company and I wouldn't have their software on any of my devices. [/QUOTE]
