What is an IP address?
An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique numerical label assigned to every device connected to a network. Your public IP address is the address your Internet Service Provider (ISP) assigns to your router or mobile data connection — it is how the internet routes traffic back to you, similar to a postal address for your household.
IPv4 vs IPv6 — what's the difference?
IPv4 addresses look like 203.0.113.42 — four numbers between 0 and 255, separated by dots. There are about 4.3 billion possible IPv4 addresses, and the world ran out of new ones around 2011.
IPv6 addresses look like 2001:db8::1 — eight groups of hexadecimal digits. IPv6 supports 340 undecillion unique addresses, enough for every device on Earth for the foreseeable future. Most modern networks assign both; this tool shows whichever your connection uses.
What does my IP address reveal?
Your IP address can expose your approximate location (usually city or region level), your ISP, and your timezone. It does not reveal your exact street address, your name, or any personally identifiable information. Geolocation databases map IP ranges to physical locations, but these are estimates — sometimes off by tens of kilometres, especially on mobile networks.
