Secure a private connection with ExpressVPN

When you use our VPN, it creates a secure, encrypted “tunnel” between your device and the internet, and gives you a new IP address that you share with thousands of other users, which makes it impossible for anyone to track your internet activity through your IP.

How do I find the IP address of a VPN?

The most simple way to trace a VPN is knowing it’s server’s IP address. ISPs and websites can see that you connect using this IP address. It is not difficult to tell that a particular IP address belongs to a VPN provider. You only need to do an IP address lookup.

On an Android smartphone or tablet: Settings > Wireless & Networks (or “Network & Internet” on Pixel devices) > select the WiFi network that you’re connected to > Your IP address is displayed alongside other network information.

Does ExpressVPN hide your IP address?

Your internet service provider (ISP) is able to track this information as well, and governments have been known to request user data. Not only does ExpressVPN conceal your real IP address from websites and your ISP, but we also do not keep logs of your activity or your VPN connections. Read more on our privacy policy.

A VPN is an intermediary server that encrypts your connection to the internet — and it also hides your IP address. A VPN encrypts all your traffic, not only in your browser but also in other apps, and then passes traffic onward to its destination.
