What Is My IP Address
One click asks a public service for your public IP address. The browser details below it are read locally and never sent anywhere.
How What Is My IP works
See the public IP address the internet sees, plus your timezone, language, screen size and other details your browser exposes. This is one of the few pages here that uses the network: it contacts api.ipify.org because only an outside server can answer that question. Nothing is uploaded and no file or text is sent.
Everyone else's tool site would do the same thing silently on page load. Here the request only happens when you press the button, and the page keeps working — minus that one result — when you are offline.
Good to know
- One outside request, to api.ipify.org, and only when you ask for it.
- No account, no cookie and no identifier is attached to the request.
- Everything else on the page is computed locally.
- Blocked by a firewall? The tool says so instead of guessing.
Questions
Is my local IP shown?
No. A local address like 192.168.1.5 only exists inside your network and no website can read it.
Does this hide or change my IP?
No. It only reports what is already visible to every site you visit. A VPN changes the address a site sees, and this tool would then show the VPN's address.
Can a website find my exact location from this?
From the IP alone, usually only a city-level guess from the ISP's registration — not a street address. Browser geolocation is separate and requires your permission.
Does this hide my IP?
No. It reports it. Hiding it requires a VPN or proxy.
Should I hide my IP address?
On a home connection there is little to hide — the address identifies a network, not a person. On public Wi-Fi, or when a site behaves differently by region, a VPN changes what is seen.
