I've used EasyVFR on my Android tablet, before switching to SkyDemon. The reason for the switch to SD was being able to plan routes on my PC (which works superbly) and also the easier to read charts.
So far it's been all good (in general SD far exceeds EasyVFR), but there's one EasyVFR feature i really mis. In EasyVFR, I could get an overview of all airspace crossed for an entire route. - the class of airspace (e.g. D)
- type of airspace (e.g. TMA)
- name / controlling entity (e.g. Nowhereville TMA-D)
If a leg crosses multiple regions, it would show multiple lines. You could also tap on a line in the list of airspace for a leg, to see it outlined on the chart and get relevant frequencies.
EasyVFR also has an Airspace Briefing report (PDF / print), which gives you an overview of all airspace near your intended route, with classes, relevant frequencies, etc...
Is there any way in SD to get an overview of all airspace crossed (type, class, name / controlling entity and perhaps relevant frequencies)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
(I'm using 3.0.7.0 on Windows 8.1 and 3.0.7.19226 on a Google Nexus 7 2012 device)

Well, I'd say the "Flight Details" panel comes pretty close to this - depending on which warning levels you configured. I always use this to review the controlled airspace that I'm going to cross if following the planned route. It's color coded and clicking on the warning highlights that airspace on the map.
No direct info on the frequencies linked to this feature, but you can get those from the PLOG.
