Anyone else notice the differences between ios8 for the iphone and ios for the ipod touch. The ones I can see so far after upgrading....

Namely no continuity/handoff
Find my phone doesn't have the send my location just before the battery died

sure there must be some other stuff
 
On the iPod Touch, there is no Medical ID option in the Heath App.

“Send Last Location” IS under “Settings/iCloud/Find my iPod”

Handoff is there. Go to Settings>General. Its right below Spotlight Search.
 
Sorry, I was mistaken.

Something happened with my update. It took me two times for the update to finally go though, then suddenly it reverted back to ios7.

I could have sworn I saw new ios8 features in settings after the update, then this morning the weather was yahoo and I knew it was still ios7. Maybe I accidentally reverted it back to ios7 one of the times I though ios8 was installing.

Trying to update again and see what happened.

Mine wouldn't OTA update for whatever reason so to avoid hassle I just iTunes updated. That's typically most reliable.
 
Just learned how to do that with my Apple TV, think that is the way I am going to go from now on.
