Parental Controls don't block YouTube App

If I use a web browser on iOs devices, youtube is blocked. If I use the youtube app, it is NOT blocked. I don't even see any indication of it coming through my logs. How can I fix this?

That's great if you want youtube blocked for everyone at ALL times. I have quite a large blacklist. 

But, if you want to block youtube at certain hours of the day and have special bypass settings for others using OpenDNS, blacklisting the site with keywords won't work.
