About your connection
Why this number matters
Your public IP is the address a website sees for your connection. Devices on the same Wi-Fi often share it. If you switch networks or connect through a VPN, the public IP shown here can change.
Public vs. private IP addressesWhy is my location different?
IP location is an estimate for the network. Mobile carriers, VPNs, and internet providers can route traffic through another city. This tool does not use your device’s GPS.
Why do I only see IPv4 or IPv6?
The address shown is the one used for this request. Your device might support both, but a single request arrives over one connection.
Does my IP identify my device?
Not necessarily. Several devices can share a public IPv4 address, and some networks assign addresses that change. An IP also doesn’t tell us your name or exact address.
