IP Geo Location Extension

Display the location and IP address of the connection you're currently using.

No more confusion which proxy or vpn connection is active at the moment.

Just click to refresh, it's as easy as it gets. Or configure an interval to refresh automatically.

PLEASE NOTE: The extension is using a free service to display your IP and geo location data (http://ipinfo.io/). If there seems to be a problem with a specific IP or the resulting location data I can not do anything about it since I'm not in any way affiliated with the services the extension is using. Sorry for the circumstances. I'm just happy such services exist and thus provide a stable solution for most users.

mathdi (ID: 00000032cdb30972) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/11/2023 a good extension for IP address but no auto pop-up

Gian Candeias (ID: 00000079f2f9efd8) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 07/19/2023 A atualização deveria ser imadiata após a mudança do IP

Ian S (ID: 00000079a17348bd) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/05/2022 Works brilliantly.

Manolo (ID: 000000ae1b7c4a17) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 11/05/2022 Nice extension. My only wish is that auto refresh be made available more frequently, say every 10 seconds (instead of 1 min). That will be immensely helpful - alerting the user when one's IP address/location changes while using a VPN, or if the VPN disconnects, thereby revealing one's real IP and location.
