Moving Map Night-VFR in Europe?

Winter time is coming, I will do quite some night flying in Europe this year and have a hard time deciding which moving map solution to choose for Apple iPad/iPhone use.

I did like Jeppesen MFDVFR, but they don't offer an iPhone version (I'd like for backup) and vertical airspace graphs, plus it is quite expensive. I did like Skydemon for VFR daytime, but substantial airspaces for night flying are missing. I did like AirNavigation Pro before it was killed by too much gimmicks. I didn't look at other competitors, so - what do you use for flying VFR at night?

I know of airspace (usually) only active during business hours, more or less - certain Belgian military CTR's, for example, EBBE, EBBL, EBFS.

But are there really bits of aerospace that are active or not-active depending on SR-SS?

Airspace Avoid? Free! Updated every 4 week. And you can blame the CAA if there's an error, assuming you've used the NOTAM update function.

I can't find any of the european night flight systems for the military, but checked only a few countries yet.
