How to Find Your IP Address on Google Pixel

Locate local and public IP addresses for network troubleshooting.

Last verified: February 21, 2026

Android shows the local IP address in the advanced section of the connected Wi-Fi network details, typically accessed by tapping the connected network name in Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi. The exact steps vary by Android version and manufacturer UI — Samsung places it under Wi-Fi > tap network > View more, while stock Android shows it by tapping the network name and expanding the Advanced section. The IP shown is always the local network address; the public IP (what websites see) requires visiting a site like whatismyipaddress.com or searching "my IP" in Chrome.

Quick Steps

Follow in order for the fastest result.

  1. 1Go to Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi, tap the connected network name. Expand Advanced or IP Settings to see the assigned IP.
  2. 2To find your public IP address, open any browser and type: what is my ip address.
  3. 3Note the local IP (typically 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x) for router configuration and port forwarding tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is my IP address on Google Pixel?
Go to Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi > tap the connected network. Expand Advanced settings to see the IP address.
What is the difference between a local IP and a public IP?
Your local IP (like 192.168.1.x) is assigned by your router and only works within your home network. Your public IP is assigned by your ISP and is what the internet sees. Devices on your home network share one public IP but each have a unique local IP.
Why does my IP address on Google Pixel keep changing?
By default, routers assign IPs dynamically (DHCP) — they can change when the device reconnects or the lease expires. This is normal. If you need a stable IP for port forwarding or a NAS, assign a static IP in your router's DHCP reservation settings using the device's MAC address.
Why does my Google Pixel show an IP starting with 169.254?
A 169.254.x.x address (APIPA) means your device attempted to get an IP from the router via DHCP but failed. This is almost always caused by a router issue, a cable problem, or the device being unable to reach the router. Follow the Fix Wi-Fi guide to obtain a valid IP.
