On an iPhone, there are also two kinds of IP address: your local Wi-Fi IP and the public IP the internet sees. Here's how to find both in a few simple steps.
Finding your public IP
Open Safari (or any other browser) and go to Show-IP.ir — your public IP address, country, city, carrier, and connection security status show up instantly, no extra app needed.
Finding your local Wi-Fi IP
- Open Settings.
- Go to Wi-Fi.
- Tap the (i) icon next to your connected Wi-Fi network.
- Under IPv4 Address, the value next to IP Address is your phone's local IP.
Why is this different from the IP shown on Show-IP.ir?
Your Wi-Fi IP only means something on the network you're connected to, while Show-IP.ir shows your public IP — the address any server on the internet actually sees. Read the full difference in Private vs Public IP.
Key takeaways
- Public IP: open Show-IP.ir in Safari.
- Local Wi-Fi IP: Settings → Wi-Fi → (i) next to the network name → IPv4 Address.
