Hello!

Can you try restarting your device and trying again?

If that does not fix it, then try deleting the ankihub addon and redonwnloading it by inputting this code: 1322529746

This looks similar to this post: Browse button error
The error is caused by a note that has invalid tags. We’re not sure why this happens and whether it’s something in the AnkiHub add-on, but you can try running the following code in the debug console:

mw.col.db.execute('update notes set tags = "" where id = 1524146658690')

Let us know If you have any clues about how this started to appear.
