Can Webroot be installed on my Ipad?

Hi pgoergen
Welcome to the Community Forums.
If I may add, to what Petr has posted, by way of clarificaiton...at this time, there is not an antivirus option available for Apple iOS devices. This is because of how Apple manages the apps available in their App Store, and as a result there is not seen to be 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 (which is not the case re. the Mac & its OSX operating system).
As Petr has quite correctly advised, 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.
Hope that helps to clarify & answer the underlying question?
