NEFilterControlProvider - handleNewFlow sometimes not catching url
Hello, Our application performs web filtering by using NEFilterControlProvider and NEFilterDataProvider. In most cases it works as it should but sometimes browser flow from the filter control provider does not catch the URL. For instance when the URL is opened from Gmail application or when search is performed with Arabic keyboard (right to left) set on device on almaany.com/.  In NEFilterDataProvider handleNewFlow catches the URL and needRulesVerdict is called, handleNewFlow in NEFilterControlProvider fires but the URL is empty.  Is there any way to make the extension more reliable or can you suggest any other approach to catch requests? Thank you

Network Extensions and Youtube filtering
Hello, Our application performs web filtering by using NEFilterControlProvider and NEFilterDataProvider. Recently we’ve been requested by clients to improve our app by performing filtering on Youtube while using Safari. Problem that we encountered is that while navigating through Youtube and playing videos, flow is not firing and thus we are not able to return verdict. Can You help us with a suggestion of how we can resolve this issue either by introducing another network extension or by using the current one but with a solution that we are currently unaware of? Thank you
