Hi there,
I dont know if you consider Auxerre (LFLA) as "near continent" ... but we
use AirNav Pro on iPhone and iPad here. Very cheap and easy to use,
providing moving map with elevation inputs and VACs (for France and GMY) and
METARs and NOTAMs plus HSI and route and nearest fields...
The only bad point is that you need to keep the GSM running on the iPhone
and it may ring and perturbate your instruments...
By the way iPad is a bit too large during landing and take-off to sit on
knees, and not easy to fix on the panel. Any solution out there?

Any other recommendations out there for ipad or iphone apps for flying in
the UK and near continent? I have been away for a while and haven't been
keeping up to date with them.

Not as many bells & whistles as ForeFlight but less expesnive. Gives
updates for all the charts and approach plates for $20 / year. No flight
planning but does give a magenta line and shows your position, nearest
airports, ETA, etc. TFRs, METARs & TAFs show when connected to WIFI (or as
of last connection if you enable it).
