I clicked something and now my Trello looks like code. 

I have deleted and added the app and its it still the same. 

I can't remember what I clicked but I think it was in the Trello interface, not an option from the drop down tab so I can't even get back in to see what the thing I clicked was.

Hopefully this makes sense. 

 

Any help appreciated. I am still able to use but only in my web browser. 

See photo attached of what I am currently looking it!

@Oliver Edinburgh this looks like a JSON export of a card. You can get it by adding .json to any card URL in a web browser.

Possibly what happened is that you opened a URL with a .json extension from another app and it opened in Trello, but as JSON.

Pretty weird that it's persisting after deleting and reinstalling though.

Can you try clicking on a normal Trello URL from somewhere else and see if it opens up a card correctly in the app?
