ipad virus protection
Just purchased ipad 9th generation. Do I need to install virus/malware protection such as McAfee or Norton 360? I get 2-3 emails a day telling me my subscription is expired. Thank you for your help.
iPad, iPadOS 15

Good question! And not to worry. If you plan to use iPad apps which are installed from the Apple App Store only, you will not need McAfee, Norton or any other antivirus or malware protection for your iPad. (Even if the App Store offers them.) Basically the antivirus software wouldn't really hurt your iPad, but would be unnecessary.
(A desktop computer however, would be a different story.)
Please see the following list of information on how to Use the built-in security and privacy protections of iPad:
