How to enable Icon for Bookmarking Websites on iOS 8?

It would seem like the standard apple-touch tags aren't working correctly for me in iOS8.

<link rel="apple-touch-icon-precomposed" sizes="180x180" href="icon-180.png">

Is there a new format to get this functionality to work? It looks like Apple hasn't yet updated their docs for iOS 8.

I was having issues getting these to work, and the reason was that because I was using a development SSL certificate, it wasn't fetching the images properly.

When on a machine with a proper SSL certificate, or by using absolute paths with a non-secure protocol (http://), I was able to fix this issue.

Moving the touch-icon link right after fixed it for me.
