Antivirus app

adware is an annoyance. Not a virus. There is a difference.

Also, the apple store has had more than it's share of reported malware infections. And, generally speaking, if you ask me, apple users are numbed by the Marketing of "security through obscurity" and won't know how to or will react slowly to any kind of infection compared to Android users

Sometimes, those adware may introduce virus if clicked by accident.
 
Avast is a good app but you might face problems like entering password every now and then while editing settings which is quite annoying also the location finder does not work when the GPS is off.
The password requirement is an optional setting in Avast.

Avast's location finder does work even if GPS is turned off. I just tested it. But you need to enable that feature in Avast's settings.
