Youtube videos not loading in Focus for IOS

The website will load and I can click on videos, but I think it tries to load an ad first (and then can’t, so it doesn’t load any video). I think this because I clicked on a 55 minute video and the rest of the page loaded fine, but the player says “Content not available” and shows a runtime of 1:33. I’m assuming this is due to YouTube’s harsher adblock policies, but as extensions don’t work on IOS & I can’t use uBlock, I’m hoping there’s a workaround in Focus.

Youtube worked on Focus two days ago, but not today, with no update in between. Updating the app does not fix the problem.
