Frequently asked questions
How accurate is IP geolocation?
It maps an IP to a location using a public database, not GPS or your device. Country-level accuracy is high; city-level is approximate, and the coordinates point to a regional center, not a street. Being a town or two off is normal, and VPNs or mobile networks often show the provider's location instead of yours.
Can it find someone's exact address?
No — and that's by design. IP geolocation only reaches the city or ISP level. It can't reveal a home address, a name, or a precise position. Anyone claiming an IP alone pinpoints a person to a doorstep is overstating what the data can do.
Does looking up my own IP expose it to anyone?
Your IP is already visible to every site you connect to — that's how the internet routes traffic. This tool sends a request to a public geolocation service (ipapi.co) to describe it, which necessarily sees your IP, but no lookups are stored here.
About this tool
The IP address lookup tool shows the approximate geographic location, ISP or organization, timezone, and network details behind any IP address. It loads your own IP and location automatically, and you can look up any other IP too. Geolocation is database-based, not GPS, so it's accurate at the country level and approximate at the city level. It complements the What Is My IP, WHOIS, and DNS tools for a fuller network picture. No sign-up, no account.
The ip address lookup connects to an external service to fetch live data, so some of what you enter is sent over the network to provide the result — see the note in the tool for specifics. We don't require an account, and we don't store your queries. Most tools on UtilityBase run entirely in your browser; this one needs the network to do its job. Browse more developer tools here.
