Gathering your system information...

Why Use Our IP & Browser Info Tool?

Public & Local IP Detection

Instantly discover your public IP address via the ipify API and your local network IP address via WebRTC. The public IP shows how your device is identified on the internet, while the local IP reveals your address on your home or office network. Optional geolocation lookup shows the approximate city and region associated with your public IP.

Complete Browser & System Profile

View detailed information about your browser - name, version, rendering engine, language, cookie status, and full user agent string. System information includes operating system with version, screen resolution with colour depth and pixel ratio, timezone with UTC offset, and current local time - all gathered from your browser's standard APIs.

Network Connection Details

See your network connection type (Wi-Fi, cellular, ethernet), effective bandwidth (4G, 3G, 2G), estimated downlink speed in Mbps, and round-trip time in milliseconds. This data comes from the Network Information API available in Chromium-based browsers, giving you insights into your real-time connection quality.

One-Click Copy & Privacy First

Copy your IP address or all system information to your clipboard with a single click - perfect for troubleshooting or sharing with IT support. Your data is never stored or logged. The IP lookup uses public APIs without authentication, and all browser/system information is gathered client-side and never transmitted.

Common Use Cases

IT Support & Troubleshooting

When contacting IT support, provide your public IP address, browser version, and operating system details in seconds instead of navigating through multiple settings menus. The one-click copy feature lets you paste all information directly into a support ticket or chat - helping support staff diagnose issues faster without back-and-forth questions.

Privacy & VPN Verification

Quickly verify whether your VPN or proxy is working correctly by checking your public IP address before and after connecting. The dashboard shows your current public IP, location, and ISP - making it easy to confirm that your traffic is routing through the expected server and your real location is hidden.

Web Development & Testing

Front-end developers can use the browser and system information for debugging responsive layouts, testing browser-specific features, and verifying user agent strings. Screen resolution, pixel ratio, and colour depth data help ensure your applications render correctly across different devices and configurations.

Network Configuration & Diagnostics

Network administrators and power users can quickly check connection type, effective bandwidth, and latency to diagnose network issues. The downlink speed and RTT estimates help determine if your connection is performing as expected or if there are congestion issues affecting performance.

Browser Issue Reproduction

When reporting browser bugs or website compatibility issues, the detailed browser information - including exact version, engine, and user agent - helps developers reproduce the problem. The cookies and Do Not Track status provide additional context for privacy-related rendering differences.

Personal Knowledge & Awareness

Understand what information your browser reveals about your device and location. The dashboard is an educational tool for privacy awareness - showing exactly what data websites can access through standard browser APIs. Use it to audit your browser fingerprint and make informed decisions about privacy settings.

About This Tool

What Is the IP & Browser Info Tool?

This tool displays a comprehensive dashboard of your device's network identity and system configuration - all gathered directly from your browser. It shows your public IP address (fetched from the ipify API), local network IP (via WebRTC), detailed browser and operating system information, screen specifications, timezone, and network connection quality estimates. Everything runs in your browser, and no data is stored or logged on any server.

How the Information Is Gathered

Your public IP is retrieved by making a single request to api.ipify.org, a free and privacy-focused IP detection service. Optional geolocation data (city, region, country) is fetched from ipapi.co based on the detected IP. Your local IP is obtained through WebRTC - a browser technology that discovers local network addresses. Browser and system information comes from standard JavaScript APIs: navigator.userAgent for browser/OS detection, window.screen for display details, Intl.DateTimeFormat for timezone, and the Network Information API (navigator.connection) for connection quality estimates. No data is stored or persisted between sessions.

Understanding Your Browser Fingerprint

Every time you visit a website, your browser shares a significant amount of information through HTTP headers and JavaScript APIs. This includes your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, screen resolution, language preference, timezone, and installed fonts and plugins. Collectively, this is called your "browser fingerprint" - and it can often identify you uniquely even without cookies. This tool helps you see what information is visible to websites, empowering you to make informed decisions about privacy tools like VPNs, privacy-focused browsers, and tracker blockers.

Privacy & Data Handling

Your public IP is fetched from the ipify API, a free service that does not log or store IP addresses. Optional geolocation data is retrieved from ipapi.co. No authentication or API key is required. All browser and system information is gathered client-side using JavaScript APIs and is never transmitted to any server. No data is stored in localStorage, cookies, or server logs. You can refresh the data at any time to check for changes (e.g., after connecting to a VPN).

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the tool find my public IP address?
Your public IP is retrieved by making a request to the ipify API (api.ipify.org), a free and privacy-focused IP detection service that returns your public IP address in JSON format. This is the same method used by many popular "what is my IP" websites. The API does not require authentication and does not log IP addresses.
How is my local IP address detected?
Your local IP is detected using WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication), a browser technology designed for peer-to-peer audio, video, and data sharing. The tool creates a temporary RTCPeerConnection and listens for ICE candidates, which contain the local IP addresses of your device on your home or office network. This data is processed entirely in your browser and never transmitted anywhere.
What is browser fingerprinting?
Browser fingerprinting is the collection of information your browser reveals to websites - including IP address, browser version, operating system, screen resolution, language, timezone, installed fonts, and more. These data points can often identify your device uniquely, even without cookies. This tool shows you a subset of that fingerprint so you understand what information is visible when you browse the web.
Is my data stored or logged?
No. Your IP address is fetched from public APIs that do not log requests. All browser and system information is gathered client-side using JavaScript APIs and is never transmitted to any server, stored in localStorage, or persisted between sessions. The dashboard is ephemeral - refreshing the page fetches fresh data.
Why is my local IP unavailable?
Local IP detection via WebRTC may be unavailable if your browser blocks WebRTC (some privacy-focused browsers and extensions do this intentionally), if you are on certain network configurations, or if the ICE candidate gathering times out. The tool will show "Unavailable" and still display all other information correctly.
Can I use this tool to check if my VPN is working?
Yes. Check your public IP and location on this dashboard, connect to your VPN, then click "Refresh" to see the updated IP and location. If your VPN is working correctly, the public IP and location should change to those of the VPN server rather than your actual connection.
Why is my network connection type shown as "Unknown"?
The Network Information API (navigator.connection) is currently only supported in Chromium-based browsers (Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Opera, Brave). Firefox and Safari do not support this API, so connection type, downlink speed, and RTT will show as "Unknown" in those browsers.
Does the tool work on mobile devices?
Yes, the IP & Browser Info tool is fully responsive and works on all modern mobile browsers. On mobile devices, it can detect cellular connection types (4G, 3G, 2G) if supported by the browser. All features including copy-to-clipboard work on touch devices.
How often should I refresh the information?
The tool gathers fresh data automatically when you load the page. Use the "Refresh" button to get updated information when your network or IP changes - for example, after connecting to a VPN, switching Wi-Fi networks, or reconnecting to your mobile data. The dashboard is always current when displayed.
