Making iOS App Icons for iOS 8
According to Apple’s iOS Human Interface Guidelines, every app must provide an icon to be displayed on a device’s Homescreen and in the App Store. An app should specify several different icons of different dimensions to suit different screen sizes and different situations.
You can save valuable time by using Makeappicon.com to generate app icons of all dimensions you need for submitting your apps to Apple in one click, no matter it’s built for iOS 7 or 8, and focus on coding and improving your apps.
Here are the dimensions for iOS 8 apps: (Looking for iOS 7 dimensions?)

Note
Apps distributed via ad-hoc distribution may also include a 512 x 512 pixel version of their icon in the CFBundleIconskey. The name of this file must be iTunesArtwork (with no file extension). The high resolution version of this icon should be 1024 x 1024 pixels and have the name iTunesArtwork@2x (also without file extension). Do not include this icon in your app bundle if you are not distributing your app via ad-hoc distribution.
