There is no AV app for iOS nor iPadOS. These are sandboxed operating systems so no such app could even scan nor protect any other app’s file space. Honestly, I would not even bother with bitdefender for MacOS.


And if you’re running the latest iOS or iPadOS there are no known virus or exploits in the wild to worry about.
