Question 1

Do you show my exact physical location?

Accepted Answer

No. We only show approximate city and region based on IP geolocation databases. The location typically reflects your ISP's network node, not your exact address.

Question 2

Why is my location slightly incorrect?

Accepted Answer

IP geolocation is approximate and often maps to your ISP's server location rather than your actual device location. It can be off by several miles or even show a neighboring city.

Question 3

Do you store or log my IP address?

Accepted Answer

No. Your IP information is displayed entirely client-side in your browser. We don't store, log, or transmit your IP address to any server.

Question 4

How can I hide my real IP address?

Accepted Answer

Use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) or proxy service. After connecting, refresh this page to see your new apparent IP address and location.

Question 5

What's the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?

Accepted Answer

IPv4 uses the familiar format (e.g., 192.168.1.1) while IPv6 uses longer addresses (e.g., 2001:0db8::1). IPv6 is the newer standard designed to handle more devices.
