I tried adding these filters on my Weblock app on iOS, but it doesn't seem to block ads on YouTube app. Any clue?

I have no idea about the iOS apps.
Did you try ABP for iOS or the ABP adblock browser for iOS ?

The ads get blocked when I visit YouTube in Safari, but not when using the actual app...

Weblock does not quite support ABP syntax; this part of the Weblock blog should give you an idea of what syntax is supported: https://www.weblockapp.com/blog/?page=2
There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed.
