by Maria William Software Developer

For protecting the computer systems, data, software, applications, and the internet network from all kinds of viruses, phishing scams, and hacking attacks, McAfee has become a popular choice of the consumers as well as businesses. All the McAfee products can be downloaded via mcafee.com/activate and are available in two versions: one for the Windows and another for iOS. McAfee also offers specialized security software, named McAfee Mobile Security for the smartphone and iPhone.

For Android, you can install MMS from Google PlayStore. Nevertheless, for installing the same on iOS, you get two options:

Via Apple App Store

  1. Visit Apple App Store and find McAfee Mobile Security in the search bar
  2. Select Get by tapping over it
  3. Agree to download the MMS app
  4. Wait until it gets downloaded and installed on your iOS device

Via another iOS device

McAfee Mobile Security can also be downloaded from one device (Smartphone, PC or Mac) to another iOS device. So, if you have another iPhone user in your home then you don’t need to go through the entire download and installation process again from the App Store. All you need to do is send an installation link from the primary device to the iOS device you want to install the MMS. Here is the stepwise procedure for the same:

Steps to be performed on the primary device

  1. Visit the official website of McAfee on your Smartphone, PC or Mac
  2. Go to My Account and provide your username and password to log in
  3. If you do not have a McAfee Account then click Register Now to create the one
  4. To send a download link to the secondary iOS device, go to the Subscriptions under My Account
  5. Choose Mobile Device and then tap Send Link
    1. Choose the iOS device type
    2. Choose the type of subscription
  6. Hit Next
  7. To send the link:
    1. Select Text It to get the activation code on your phone
    2. Select Email It to get the code on your email
  8. Enter the email address or mobile number
  9. Now, hit Text Me or Send Mail

Steps to be performed on the secondary device

  1. Open the email or the message application on your secondary iOS device
  2. You will see an email or text message from McAfee
  3. Go to the download link given there
  4. Follow the further onscreen instructions to finish the installation
