About
The IP Address Lookup tool shows detailed information for any IPv4 or IPv6 address: country and city, region, continent, geographic coordinates, ISP (Internet Service Provider), organisation name, registered timezone, currency, and international calling code. When you open the tool without entering an IP, it automatically detects and shows information for your own public IP address. To look up a different IP, type or paste any valid IPv4 or IPv6 address into the search box and press "Look up". The tool is powered by ipwho.is — a free, MIT-licensed, open API that requires no API key. Only the IP address being queried is transmitted to ipwho.is; no other data is sent. The API response is displayed directly in your browser and never stored or forwarded.
How to use
- 1 Open the tool — your own public IP address is detected and displayed automatically.
- 2 To look up a different IP, type any valid IPv4 (e.g. 8.8.8.8) or IPv6 address into the search box.
- 3 Click "Look up" or press Enter to fetch the geolocation and network information.
- 4 Click "My IP" to reset and look up your own IP again.
- 5 Use "Copy all" to copy the full result as plain text to your clipboard.
- 6 Click the OpenStreetMap link below the results to view the approximate location on a map.
- Does this tool send any of my data to a server?
- The only data transmitted is the IP address being looked up, sent to the ipwho.is API (MIT-licensed, free, no key required). Your browser's IP is inherently included in any HTTP request — that's how the "My IP" detection works. No other input data, identifiers, or cookies are shared with ipwho.is beyond what a normal HTTP request carries.
- How accurate is the geolocation?
- IP geolocation is approximate. City-level accuracy is typically within 25–100 km for residential IPs and may be less accurate for VPNs, proxies, corporate networks, or mobile connections (which may resolve to the carrier's data centre rather than your physical location). Country-level accuracy is generally above 95% for residential IPs.
- Why does my IP show the wrong city?
- IP geolocation databases map IP ranges to locations based on registration data and network topology — not GPS. If you are behind a VPN, corporate proxy, or mobile carrier, the resolved location is typically the nearest PoP (Point of Presence) or the carrier's head office rather than your physical location.
- What is the difference between ISP and Organisation?
- ISP is the Internet Service Provider — the company that sells you internet access (e.g. Comcast, AT&T, BT, Jio). Organisation is the registered owner of the IP range, which may be a hosting provider, enterprise, or the ISP itself. For home broadband users these are usually the same. For cloud servers (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure) the Organisation will be the cloud provider.
- Can I look up private IP addresses like 192.168.x.x?
- Private IP addresses (RFC 1918 ranges: 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16) and loopback addresses (127.0.0.1) are not routable on the public internet, so ipwho.is cannot return geolocation data for them. Use the CIDR / Subnet Calculator tool on this site to analyse private network ranges instead.
