What is What's My IP?

What's My IP is a free tool that instantly shows your public IP address—the address websites, APIs, and online services see when you connect. Every device on the internet has a public IP assigned by its ISP. The tool also displays your approximate location (city, region, country), ISP name, ASN (Autonomous System Number), timezone, and connection details. Data is fetched securely via Cloudflare edge; no data is stored.

Real-world use cases include verifying your IP for remote access setup, checking if a VPN or proxy is working, troubleshooting connectivity issues, confirming geolocation for services that depend on it, and sharing your IP with IT support. Developers use it to debug API access; travelers use it to confirm their connection abroad.

How to Use What's My IP

  1. Open the page—your public IP address loads automatically. No button click required.
  2. View the main display: your IPv4 or IPv6 address (whichever your connection uses).
  3. Check the stat grid for Country, City, Region, Timezone, Edge Colo, and ASN.
  4. Click Refresh or press Ctrl+Enter to re-check your IP (e.g., after switching networks).
  5. Use Copy to copy your IP, or Copy All for the full JSON payload. Press Esc to clear.

Tips & Best Practices

IP geolocation is approximate—usually accurate to city or region, not street level. Dynamic IPs change when your router restarts or your DHCP lease renews. The tool shows whichever IP version your browser uses (IPv4 or IPv6). To look up another domain or IP, use our WHOIS Lookup or DNS Lookup. Use Ctrl+Shift+C to copy your IP quickly.

When to Use This Tool

Use What's My IP when you need to know your public IP for remote access, VPN verification, or troubleshooting. Pair it with the DNS Lookup for domain resolution, or the WHOIS Lookup to investigate domain registration.

Public vs Private IP Address

A public IP address is assigned by your ISP and is visible to every server you connect to. It is globally routable, meaning anyone on the internet can send packets to it. When you search "what is my IP" or "find my IP," the result is always your public IP — the one shown by this tool.

A private IP address is used inside your local network — your home Wi-Fi, office LAN, or VPN tunnel. Common private ranges include 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, and 172.16–31.x.x. These addresses are not visible to the outside internet. Your router performs Network Address Translation (NAT) to map private IPs to your single public IP when traffic leaves your network.

Most home connections share one public IPv4 address across all devices. With IPv6, each device can receive its own globally routable address, which is why you may see an IPv6 address here instead of a traditional IPv4 one. Both versions are fully supported by this tool.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I check my IP address?

Just open this page. Your public IP address is detected automatically from your connection — no button click needed. The tool displays your IPv4 or IPv6 address along with IP location, ISP, ASN, and timezone.

Does my IP address reveal my exact location?

No. IP geolocation provides an approximate location — usually accurate to the city or region level. It cannot pinpoint a street address. The IP location data shown here comes from publicly available IP-to-geo databases used across the industry.

Why does my IP address change?

Most residential ISPs assign dynamic IPs, which can change when your router restarts or your DHCP lease renews. If you need a stable address for hosting or remote access, ask your ISP about a static IP or use a dynamic DNS service.

Will this tool show my IPv4 and IPv6 address?

The tool displays whichever IP version your browser uses to connect — IPv4 or IPv6. Most networks still default to IPv4, but if your ISP supports IPv6, you may see a longer colon-separated address instead. The version is labeled automatically above the result.

Is this IP lookup tool safe to use?

Yes. The lookup runs on Cloudflare's edge network. No personal data is stored, logged, or shared. Your IP is read directly from connection metadata — the same information every website you visit already sees.

Can I look up someone else's IP address?

This tool only shows your own public IP. To investigate another IP or domain, try our WHOIS Lookup or DNS Lookup tools.

What is an ASN?

An Autonomous System Number (ASN) identifies the network operator — such as your ISP or a cloud provider — that routes your traffic. Knowing your ASN is useful for network diagnostics, peering analysis, and verifying which provider is serving your connection.
