iOS 8 has arrived, and these apps are ready

Now that iOS 8 release day is here, developers are releasing updated versions of their apps that take advantage of its new features. I've collected several here for you to explore, and I'll be adding more throughout the day. Is there one that I missed? Speak up in the comments. Now, let's get started.

Finish (our full review here) now features a Notification Center widget, which lets you see your next three tasks right from Notification Center, as well as new interactive notifications. Each notification center is now accompanied by Finish button and a Stall button. Do you have to put something off? Simply hit Stall.

Apple's own Find My iPhone has been updated to version 3.0 with "support for iOS 8 and Family Sharing."

Quotebook, the easy way to capture, store and share memorable quotes, has been updated to version 3.0.2 and is ready for the spacious iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.

Hootsuite, the social media manager has released an iOS 8-ready version that takes advantage of the share extension. Now you can schedule content to your social serves right from your iPhone with Hootsuite.

Lockscreen Wallpaper Designer (US$1.99), which we've reviewed in full, has been updated to version 1.1. It takes advantage of the app extension. Now you can create a wallpaper for that snazzy iPhone 6 (or earlier model) from the camera roll, an email message, a text message or any other supported app. Neat! Version 1.1 is a free update for existing users.

Hours is another time-tracking app, and the latest update lets you start and stop timers from the new Notification Center widget. Move between timers faster than ever. And of course, it's optimized for the iPhone 6's and iPhone 6 Plus's larger screens. Update -- Developer Jeremy Olson at Tapity says that "we had to remove Hours from the store just now because we are getting reports from users who upgraded that their old timers are hidden ... fortunately there is no data loss. We are scrambling to submit a fix ASAP."

My beloved 1Password has been updated to version 5. It's now free with an in-app purchase (note that all Pro features are a free upgrade to all existing version 4 owners), and iOS 8-only. It also supports Touch ID and direct Safari integration. YAAAY!

UpWords Notepad is another inclusive task manager. It integrates your calendar, to-dos, contacts and so much more. It's very nice looking and manages to get a lot of information into a tidy interface. With today's update you can view your to-dos and calendar events together in the Today view. You can even reschedule tasks, right then and there.
