IP Address Lookup — Your IP and Geolocation Info

Detect your public IP address, classify any IPv4 or IPv6 address, and open official geolocation lookups for country, ISP, and timezone.

Fetched from ipify — your public IP as seen by the internet. Nothing is stored.

IPv4 vs IPv6: IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses (~4.3 billion). IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses for vastly more capacity. Private ranges: 10.x.x.x, 172.16–31.x.x, 192.168.x.x. Exact location cannot be determined from an IP alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common questions

What is my public IP address?+

Your public IP is assigned by your ISP and represents your device on the internet. It is visible to every website you visit. A private IP (192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x) is your address on your local network and is not visible to the internet. Tools like this show your public IP as seen by external servers.

What information can websites see from my IP address?+

From an IP address, a website can typically determine: your approximate city and region (not exact address), your Internet Service Provider, your timezone, and whether you are using a VPN, proxy, or Tor. Your exact home address cannot be determined from an IP — that requires a legal request to your ISP.

What is IPv6 and how is it different from IPv4?+

IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses (4 octets: 192.168.1.1), providing ~4.3 billion unique addresses. IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses (8 groups of 4 hex: 2001:0db8:85a3::8a2e:0370:7334), providing 340 undecillion addresses. IPv6 was created to solve IPv4 address exhaustion. Both coexist today in dual-stack deployments.
