History is history
There is NO going back to the page you were just viewing in this app. The back button Always takes you back to Google's main screen instead of taking you back to the page you were just on. I couldn't access a history. You also cannot access another app or let the screensaver on for a moment without loosing the page you were on. This app needs work.

I have liked them for my laptops
But holy cow!!! My iPhone!!?!! Forget about it!! I don't know how they can be such a wreck with this when they are relatively efficient, and I have felt very protected on my laptops and desktops for a couple of years now. It's crazy! Even the phone app is a mess to try and figure out how to add a phone to your account. I'm quitting until they make the obvious needed changes. The other reviews I read are an indication that this nightmare will only continue if I could ever actually get my phone added to my account anyway. I wasted enough time just trying to do that. Jeeez Webroot. Don't even offer a service that is such a mess until you get it right man, you're gonna screw up the polished reputation you spent a good deal of time creating with computers. Don't add phones and iPads until you're ready. I'm now so frustrated I feel like k don't want to renew with you which is coming up shortly, and until now I often recommended you!

Slow, then frenetic & frustrating
I installed this on (my iPad2, iOS 8.1.3) on a recommendation from "Kim Komando, Your Digital Goddess".
Fifteen minutes later, I found that the complaints about it crashing when filling in forms etc. seems to be corrected. However, when I wrote my password and other items, the page quickly scrolled to the bottom, and I couldn't see what I hade written. It will do this every time.
Facebook works very slow. Only loading a half dozen stories/posts per minute, I'd guess. While writing this review, the text box is hidden behind the keyboard, and will not allow me to scroll it up. I solved that by hitting enter a bunch of times, so I could follow what I was typing.
As far as security goes, it may possibly be a good program, but I'll never know. That is, I won't be using it with these awful traits.

WebRoot SecurWeb Browser
Asked their tech department but still doesn't work on my phone!
Crashes quite a bit.
I love all we root products and have been using them for a few years with pretty good success, but this browser crashes consistently whenever I try to use the keyboard. I.e. Searches, typing web addresses etc. please fix this we root team. There's nothing more frustrating than having the app crash while I'm typing! Both iPad and iPhone use.

Just a glorified browser
I was under the impression that webroot for mobile would act more like an antivirus like it does on the desktop/laptop. Sadly it doesn't. It's just a secure browser. Which is fine but I use chrome so it's not as useful to me. I'd prefer it if it would integrate with chrome.
Not as good as trendmicro
So I just bought an iPad and the salesman said that webroot was the best. I purchased it, as he seemed to think it was better than trendmicro. I have had a MacBook for two years now and trendmicro has been awesome protection and minimal hassle. I tried for two weeks to make webroot work. It would not even let me set up an account or send a confirmation email. So I gave up and looked up trendmicro in the app store. I was able to download and renew my subscription in less than ten minutes. Trendmicro protects IPad from malicious apps,websites, and even problems on Facebook. If you want good protection go with trendmicro. It is the best!

Keep having to sing in
When I went to the PC to deactivate some computers it worked fine. When I go to the mobile security it keep making me sign in. I've signed it so many times, it's not worth it any more, guess I'll make a trip to the geek squad. Very disappointing, you would think the geek squad app would be better then this!

Works fine for what it is
This app works fine! It's only a browser to my best knowledge and I prefer Chrome, Safari or Mercury so probably won't use it. However, it works!
Useless
Doesn't work. Tells me my log in information is incorrect when it's not.
