Narrative:
[Company stated] there are rnp approaches to runway 25 loaded. However; I have screen shots I took of my jeppesen flitedeck pro (jeppfd-pro) app on my ipad less than an hour after landing that shows no rnp approach to 25 was loaded on yesterday. I saw my first officer's ipad during flight' he also did not have any rnp approaches to runway 25.my ipad was updated on the way to the airport on yesterday; and then another update appeared while prepping for departure and that update was loaded prior to pushback. Jeppfd pro said all data was current mere moments before push. There were zero; none; nada rnp runway 25 approaches loaded in the two company ipads in the cockpit of this flight. I would like to know why? Please! This needs to be looked at.on this morning; my jeppfd pro indicated another update was available. I loaded that update on the way to the airport. Later after getting to destination and seeing the response to my previous report; I looked at the mroc approaches; and sure enough; the rnp 25 approaches are now loaded. Why weren't they there yesterday?given the serious terrain issues; I believe this and my previous report detailing ipad issues and ATC comm issues needs to be given much more attention. I spoke to two company pilots at the hotel this morning; they had landed behind us. Company treats mroc as a special airport requiring at least an initial entry with a line check airman.
