Important notes before you rely on the result
- Generators and encoders run in your browser. The IP and website status tools need our server, and say so on their page.
- Test generated QR codes, links and tags before printing or publishing them.
Limits and supported formats
- Shows the address as seen by this website. Mobile networks often share one public address among many users (carrier NAT).
- Location, ISP and city lookups are not provided, because they need a third-party database.
Privacy and data handling
Your IP address is read from your request by this website's server. It is shown to you and not saved by Toolnest. Every website receives your IP address when you visit it. This tool simply shows it back to you; Toolnest does not save it or share it, though your web host’s standard server logs may record visits.
What Is My IP Address: frequently asked questions
Why does my IP address change?
Most internet providers assign addresses dynamically, so they can change when your router restarts or you switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data.
Is it safe to share my IP address?
It reveals roughly which provider and region you connect from, not your exact address. Share it with people you trust, such as your IT support.
