Which isn't to say that it isn't compatible, just that it's only guaranteed to fill an APS-C image circle so it might have vignetting or softness on the edges and corners in full frame mode. They should work perfectly fine in APS-C crop mode.
Once the K-1 is widely available there will probably be a list developed somewhere on this forum where people will share the extent that their APS-C lenses do or don't work on the K-1 in full frame mode.

Good point; I keep forgetting that there are different apps that display it differently on mobile.
I've edited it so it should show better now.

You didn't mention any specific lenses, so I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for. In short, if it has a K-mount, it is compatible with the K-1.
The long version,
Not all Tamron lenses are available in K-mount.
Some Tamron lenses have been re-labeled as Pentax lenses. Lenses designed for digital may work in APS-C crop mode but show vignetting in full frame mode.
New future Tamron lenses may or may not be released in K-mount; this remains to be seen. If you look in the Lens Review Database you can find info on many Tamron lenses compatible with the Pentax K-1.
(Some are fully manual only, some are manual focus, some are screw drive auto focus, and some are adapted from other mounts.)
