NextDNS Ads & Trackers blocks chtbl.com; breaks podcast apps

Using NextDNS for months, but recently I can't download or stream podcasts via various apps on iOS. Appears this is related to audience service Chartable.com; blocking chtb.com breaks many podcast apps. Situation described on reddit in several threads involving Pi Hole and AdGuard among others.

Whitelisting chtbl.com and restarting iOS device corrects this.

    This is also needed to be able to stream videos via RTL TV Now App.

    The only issue remaining with TV Now App is that LiveTV is not working with Nextdns and I cannot figure out why (no block entries accordingly)?

      Tried it out: Retricted YouTube-Mode seems to block the TVNow App from streaming.

      Perflyst's Smart-TV Blocklist shouldn‘t be used as well.

    It would be nice if NextDNS would respond to these posts. You seem to have updated chtbl.com and I no longer need to whitelist it. Where is info available on updates?
