[YouTube] Brave not Blocking Ads Under iOS, Again

[JoLiKMC]

Description of the issue:
YouTube not blocking ads on videos under i(Pad)OS while browsing in Desktop Mode. Again.

How can this issue be reproduced?

1. Open Brave under i(Pad)OS.
2. Browse to YouTube and find a video that is expected to get ads.

Expected result:
No ads on video.

Brave Version( check About Brave):
Version 1.67 (127) (iOS)

Mobile Device details
Apple iPad (7th Generation), Firmware 17.5.1 (21F90).

Additional Information:
Here we go again, folks. Google is on the warpath and outdated ad blockers (like Brave under iOS) get circumvented. This’ll probably be fixed in a few days, as it always is, but I didn’t see a forum topic about it yet, so here we are.

I have the same situation. Always pop-up adblock detection. I just refresh page and everything back to normal. It is annoying every time you click a video though… Hope the fix will come onwards soon!

I issued a fix for IOS yesterday, try force closing Brave, then restarting.

For desktop/android, everyone should have the update via brave://components

Another improvement for ios/desktop YT blocking has landed. Give it 24hrs (from the message being sent). May need to restart the browser.

As far as I’m aware… this problem was, as predicted, fixed very quickly. The next day, in fact. I just kept forgetting to actually say so. Hopefully, everyone else is experiencing ad-free YouTube again, as well.

Thank you very much, fanboy! I’m glad it was as easy as just updating some definitions.

@Mattches @Saoiray I have tried force restarting after giving it 24H time but for me, when I click the video, I just see a black screen. Is there something I need to change on my end? I have attached a video as well. Can you please help me. Thank you!
