Important message about the app

There's a possibility of getting a temporal "Video unavailable" error on any videos inside any clients (including official ones). In my case, the error lasted a couple of hours. Some users reported receiving this error during 2 days. This could be related to our app, other non-official clients, or adblocking scripts. We're investigating the issue.
