Does Mcafee really work on a mobile device?

I've downloaded Mcafee and paid good money for 1 year. Every single time it runs a security check? All is fine. When it's not. Any suggestions for a SOLID security for mobile? Avast seemed to be on top of my list so far.

There is no such thing as anti-virus for iPhones. Security features on iOS makes it impossible to scan the system or other apps. Any iOS apps from companies like McAfee or Avast are NOT anti-virus software.

well the only place to get software on an iPhone (any software also malware) is app store

unlike computers where you can install from a browser or from a usb stick or optical media then

with ios devices it only! app store so for mcafee to find anything apples app store would have to be breached and letting malware out to the consumer
