First, check your tablet. If it’s an iPad – stop. You cannot install real antivirus on iPadOS. AVG on the App Store only gives you a VPN and Wi-Fi checker. It does NOT scan for malware.

We treat our tablets like mini-laptops: banking, shopping, and work emails. But unlike a PC, many users assume tablets are “immune” to viruses. They aren’t—especially Android tablets. Here’s what you need to know about using AVG Antivirus on your tablet.

If you have an Android tablet – different story. Go to the Play Store and download AVG Antivirus for Android.

One warning: Turn off the “RAM booster” feature. You don’t need it and it drains battery.
