Is there a virus software that scans the whole phone? Or just the webroot that you can use as a browser? I also cannot get my webroot homepage to show that my phone is a protected device because it won't let me log in on my phone. 

Thanks for the help! 
Hey there Maggiehickie

 

Welcome to the Webroot Community,

 

Currently there is no antivirus option available for Apple mobile devices. This is due to Apple's management of the App Store. Depending on what changes there may be need in the future but at this time is is nearly impossible to infect an Apple mobile device.

 

If you are as obsessed as me regarding device management I totally understanding that your devices not showing can concern you. UInfortunetly Apple mobile devices dont appear in the "mobile protection" section in your account, regardless of what version of Webroot you have. SecureWeb and SecureSync are Webroot apps for Apple mobile devices I will place the links down below.
