See your public IP address (the address websites see) and copy it in one click.
This tool shows your public IP address — the address websites and APIs see when you visit them. To detect it, smpl.tools runs a tiny PHP endpoint that reads the IP from your request and returns it to your browser. We don’t store your IP address or user agent — it’s shown once on screen so you can copy it.
Open the page and your IP address will appear automatically. Click Copy to copy it, or click Refresh to check again.
Most people do not care about their public IP address most of the time. When they do care, it is usually because another system cares first. A support team asks for it, a firewall needs it, a VPN check depends on it, or a remote service is deciding whether to trust the connection.
That makes this tool practical in a very specific way: it shows the public-facing network identity your browser is presenting right now, without asking you to reach for terminal commands or router settings.
Some systems only allow traffic from approved public IPs. Before adding a rule, you need the exact visible address.
If you turned on a VPN, you often want a simple confirmation that the outward-facing address actually changed.
Hosting, SaaS, and network support teams often use the public IP as a starting identifier when diagnosing access issues.
The address your home router assigns inside your network is not the same as the address the outside internet sees.
Knowing the address helps with whitelisting and identification. It does not, by itself, explain every connectivity problem.
Depending on your provider, network, VPN, or proxy, the public IP you see today may not be the same one you see later.
Before you add an allow-list rule, you want the exact public IP that service will receive from your connection.
If the tool shows the same address before and after enabling a VPN, that tells you something useful immediately.
When a service says “send us the IP you are connecting from”, this is the number they usually mean.
This tool shows your public IP address. It does not inspect your local devices, explain routing problems, or provide a full network analysis. It answers one narrow but common question well.
Public IP remains a basic piece of operational information in many systems. The value here is speed and clarity: one page, one answer, and less chance of copying the wrong network detail into a ticket or rule.
Your IP address is the public address your internet connection uses to reach websites. This tool shows the IP our server sees for your request.
Yes — it’s the IP address our server sees for your request (typically your public/WAN IP).
No. The endpoint returns your IP to your browser so it can be displayed, but we don’t save it in our app.
Your IP can change when you switch networks, restart your router, or enable a VPN/proxy.
Most home and office networks use NAT, so websites see the router (or your VPN), not the private IP of your device.
Your browser requests your public IP address from this site’s IP endpoint. The value is shown in your browser and is not saved by this tool.
