Does iPad need anti virus and AlwaysOnPC app
I keep accidentally typing in the wrong web address and getting redirected to websites that has pop ups that says Something like "congratulations, you are our 100th visitor. You have won". For example, I type gmil.com instead of gmail.com.
My question is, is there any anti-virus program I can install on my iPad?
I have heard the iOS devices does not need anti-virus but I don't understand how that works. For example, if someone visit a website while on a Windows computer And that website has a virus.. Most likely the computer will have a virus. But if a Mac user visit the same website, will they also be infected?
My next question is does anyone here use an app called - AlwaysOnPC-?
If I download this app on my iPad, will I be at an increased risk of getting a virus? Because I will be using a different browser than safari?
Sorry for all the questions. I am not too familiar with apple and their software.
