Red dot (circle) next to the app name below the app icon on the iPhone Home Screen on iOS 8

Question

What does the red dot (circle) next to the app name below the app icon mean?

I added a Today Extension (Widget) to the app. It appears only when I launch the app on the iOS 8, it does not appear on iOS 7 simulator. Even though I removed the extension and cleared the simulator, it still appears before the app name.

An Orange dot next to an app normally means it's a beta version, as installed through Testflight. I have a couple of those at the moment, though one looks more red. Trying to find if there's a difference between an orange and a red dot, or if it's just an artefact of the colour of the background image that makes it look red.
