Tazz by EMAG is not working with Blokada activated

[andreewmat]

tazz by eMAG doesn't want to connect to internet when I have Blokada activated, if I disable Blokada everything is fine. I'm using the latest version of Tazz and Blokada 4.15 with default lists (I tried with other filter lists too but without luck, still the same problem).

Only this one app has issues? Did you try to change the DNS server in the app and check if that solves the issue?

[andreewmat]

@peterroth Yes, I tried changing DNS but no luck. I tried DNS like Adguard DNS, Cloudflare 1.1.1.1, Google Public DNS, OpenDNS. Only on this app I saw this issue.

Thanks, may I ask if you see blocked hosts when you open the tazz app? Maybe the list contains a host that is crucial for the app. You can also try to bypass tezz, that may helps.

@peterroth How can I bypass tazz? I looked at Host log and this domain were blocked:apm_cc

[peterroth]

In v5: advanced screen, Apps, search for the Tazz app and tap that.

Yes, this bypass made it works again, thanks. What does this bypass? The ads and trackers are not blocked anymore?

[peterroth]

The app's traffic, what is being bypassed, won't be filtered. Hence, as you mentioned, no ads nor trackers will be blocked. If you want to still block ads and trackers in the Tezz app, you should check which hostnames are being blocked when Tezz isn't bypassed and inspect which one is required in order to get the expected function of the app.

edit: most probably a list you have enabled carries a necessary hostname for the Tezz app. But as that's being blocked, Tezz doesn't work.
