What is the What Is My IP?

This what-is-my-IP tool shows your public address instantly, along with the browser details a website can see about you.

Tips
- Your public IP differs from your device's local (private) IP like 192.168.x.x.
- Turn a VPN on and refresh to confirm your IP changed.
- IPv4 and IPv6 addresses can both apply — you may have either.
- Home IPs are often dynamic and can change over time.
- IP maps only to a general area, not a precise address.
- Avoid posting your IP publicly where it isn't needed.
- For allow-listing, ask whether the service needs IPv4 or IPv6.
- Re-check after reconnecting or switching networks.
Common mistakes to avoid
Confusing public and local IP
Fix: This shows your public IP; 192.168.x.x and 10.x.x.x are private local addresses.
Assuming your IP is fixed
Fix: Most home IPs are dynamic and change; re-check when needed.
Expecting exact location
Fix: IP geolocation is approximate — it maps to a region, not a street address.
Sharing your IP carelessly
Fix: Only share it with services that need it, and prefer secure channels.
