What is checkIP.sh?
A lightweight, privacy-respecting service for instantly viewing your public IP address and network metadata from the browser or command line. Designed for speed and simplicity, it returns clean JSON or a readable HTML page — with no ads, trackers, or bloat. You can look up arbitrary IP addresses as well.
Whether you're a developer, sysadmin, or just curious about your internet presence, checkip.sh makes it easy to:
- View your public IP address
- Lookup ASN, ISP, geolocation, and reverse DNS
- Access it from any terminal using curl or wget
- Share quick IP snapshots with human-readable formatting
Unlike bloated alternatives, checkip.sh is open, minimal, and fast — often returning full results in under 0.5 seconds.
