In this post, I will keep track of the apps working AND not working for iOS8.

Can someone confirm or deny if the Pebble Watch works for notifying you of phone calls under the beta 1? That is the one thing I'm hesitant upon upgrading my iPhone to - upgrading my iPad tonight.

I really appreciate your source of details :)
added to the list !
 
FWIW, Tweebot for iPhone was working just fine for me (minus some layout jumble when using the predictive keyboard). Tweetbot for iPad however just crashed.

I have a feeling the latter is to light a fire up under Tapbot’s bum to get one out for iOS7/8 already. :D

added it in both lists :)
 
It's worth noting that Tweetbot half works on iPhone -- try adding a photo to your tweet and you'll see what I mean

Tweetbot 3 if you use the app to read only other works but pop up menus crash the App.

Fair enough. iOS8 on my iPhone 5 was so unstable I got rid of it before I could play with it too long. Tweetbot not being able to post/use regularly would just have been another nail in that coffin.
