Circle is not blocking youtube
Hello, I just enabled Circle Premium on my Orbi router and have set up profiles for all people in my home. I am trying to block access to Youtube for just a few devices that my kids use for schoo...
Hello Zablabaz,
Thanks for providing an update on your issue.

NP. Still looking into why the YouTube app is not getting blocked while the web browser is getting blocked. My kids use Chromebooks, and I wonder if this could be related? I'll definitely update this thread when I have it figured out.
I have the same problem. My son uses school iPad. I try to use Circle and set YouTube to "Not Allowed" and also add custom filter "YouTube.com" and "m.YouTube.com" to "Not allowed". However, they don't not work and he can still watch YouTube. It is really annoying, because he always not focus on online classes or doing homework, but watching YouTube. Does anyone have solution?
By the way, does custom filter really work? I use my phone to try out and input several websites, but I can still enter these websites after completed the setup. Not a cache issue because I delete the history and also never visit theses website before. Thx
