Pages documents look blurry after updating to iOS 8.3

I use the iWorks apps a lot, after updating tonight to iOS 8.3 I discovered that the display of all the documents from Pages looks blurry, and when I open a document it looks still blurry, is there a way to fix it?, Am I the only one having this trouble? 😕

Just got off the phone with Apple Tech Support, including a Pages specialist. No solutions so far but there have been other complaints. The initial technician had to look up under iWorks rather than Pages. The Pages specialist is filing a report but suggested it would speed things along to go to apple.com/feedback, scroll down to iOS Apps, select Pages, and file a bug report online, which I just did. The more of us willing to file an online bug report the faster the fix. Be sure to include the version number of Pages (Settings/Pages). I checked other native iOS apps (Safari, Mail, Notes, Calender, Contacts) and they are all fine. I updated my iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2 to iOS 8.3 and Pages text is blurry. I did not update my iPhone 5c. It is still running iOS 8.2 and Pages text is perfect. All are running the latest version of Pages (2.5.2). So the problem is definitely with the 8.3 update.

So a new update to Pages app arrived today, and it turns out that Apple has chosen to ignore the feedback from its users: the bug that causes documents to appear blurry has not been solved. It is very unfortunate. "Reset all settings" does help for a time being, but for me, it only lasted for half a day. It appears that this bug has to do with some kind of incompatibility between older and newer devices. I use Pages on my iPad 3 (Retina).

Thank you! Very grateful that you persisted and isolated the problem. Worked on my iPad Air 2 to and on my iPhone 6. After making the change, another problem arose on the iPad. Whenever I dragged a document into a folder Pages would crash. Uninstalling and reinstalling Pages solved that problem. This problem did not happen on the iPhone. Thank you again.
