The IP Widget is a versatile tool that seamlessly monitors and displays various network information directly on a user's device. Its primary function caters to those keen on keeping tabs on their connection details such as mobile carrier name, IP addresses, Wi-Fi SSID, and even the wifi channel and frequency.
Featuring a no-ad policy, the app ensures a clean and uninterrupted user experience. Users can customize the widget to their liking, with adjustable background, text size, color, and opacity. It boasts battery efficiency by passively receiving system updates rather than actively polling for IP information.
Top features include the display of both local and external IP addresses, with optional reverse hostname visibility. The app indicates the type of mobile connection used, from GPRS to 4G, and provides information in the notification area upon user preference. Tapping actions can be configured for quick access to settings or to manually refresh the widget content.
For those with multiple connection methods, IP Widget supports Bluetooth and USB tethering alongside traditional Wi-Fi connections and includes a logging feature with customizable output. With lockscreen widget support, offline notifications, and even tethering controls, the app customizes to fit user requirements comprehensively.
Geolocation features extend to city and country display, and with IPv6 support, the tool keeps up with current internet protocol trends. Available in several languages, it appeals to a global audience.
Permissions are straightforward and purposeful, ranging from full internet access for external IP retrieval to control over WiFi toggling and local storage modifications for event logging.
In conclusion, IP Widget is an efficient and customizable tool, perfect for those looking to monitor and control their network connectivity with ease and precision.
