I have the most recent version of the Ipad Pro 12.9. Is there an app that will analyze all of its components and generate a list?
Thanks.
Thanks.
App like Belarc Advisor for component list

Hi John........ - first, welcome to the forum!
Second, you must be just coming from the Windows world and now entering an alternate Universe, i.e. Apple hardware/software - I had to look up Belarc Advisor (pic below for those, including me, not familiar w/ the product). Apple's iPadOS is a 'sandboxed' operating system that hides much from the user and does not allow a lot of hardware investigation.There is no single app that will do what you want relative to the information gathered in 'one place' like the Belarc Advisor - I can only provide a few examples and hopefully others will add comments. There are a handful of apps that will do some 'hardware listing & testing'; one of several on my iPad Pro is Benchmark 5 (see second pic below; available from the app store). The battery apps are limited but if you have a Mac computer, the Coconut Battery provides more important information, such as 'battery health' & 'cycle count'.
As to your network, there are are plenty of scanning/analyzer apps, e.g. some on my device are IT Tools, Net-Toolbox, Net Analyzer, Fing, & Network Tools - again a search of the App Store will bring up many. Installed software (size & data storage) can be easily seen in Settings > General > iPad Storage.
Viruses do not exist in the iOS world, so not a concern, but browser adware, hijacking, etc. can occur - there are many browsers other than Safari, and a number that offer no tracking and anonymous browsing; also if you want VPN, a number work on the iPad. Let me stop there - much to learn and digest - and again others will come along to support and add to my comments. Dave

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I will check out Benchmark 5.
