I also have this issue. I am trying to use Pages on my iPad 10 and it constantly crashes or loses work. I lost 1500 words one day while writing an essay. I can’t restart my iPad every 10min — that’s not a useful solution. I’ve reinstalled Dropbox already. Not sure what else to do, but I admit this is a highly disappointing issue.

So this is clearly a software issue. Somehow the dropbox iOS apps just seem to have bugs or us unstable. I too have tried reinstalling apps doesn’t seem to solve the problem.
