Google Hangouts works well for this. It was formerly known as Google Talk but the iOS and Android apps are now "Google Hangouts".

If this doesn't work for you, consider to search using terms such as "marine," "boating," "aviation," "aircraft." All of these types remove the road following requirement of many GPS programs.

I like Trillian. It is very interoperable, integrates many different IM networks as well as having their own, and lets you connect or disconnect from each network independently.
The only thing I'm not certain of is whether it can be configured to prompt for a password when you connect. I generally protect the device and allow Trillian to keep my ...

Example: My wife will add something to the to-do list and I'll no idea what she means. I'll ...

Some Barcode Scanners & Generators¹ have a feature for "bulk scanning" (a la "peep, peep, peep …" and simply storing what they found), and later let you export the list in some format – either sharing it via e.g. Mail, or exporting it as CSV/Excel.
One such candidate is LoMag Barcode Scanner to Excel, which describes itself as a "completely free barcode ...
