About:
IP in menu bar is a lightweight utility that continuously displays your active network IP address directly in the macOS menu bar. It provides real-time updates for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses across multiple network interfaces. The tool offers a simple, unobtrusive way to monitor your network status without needing to open Terminal or system preferences.
Key Features:
  • Real-time IP address display in menu bar
  • Support for both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols
  • Automatic detection of network interface changes
  • Copy IP address to clipboard with one click
  • No configuration required - works out of the box

  • Developers needing quick access to their IP address for server connections or port forwarding
  • Network administrators monitoring dynamic IP changes on remote machines
  • Users requiring IP address for VPN verification or firewall configuration
Alternatives:
  • ip-in-menu-bar – Free, open-source alternative with similar functionality but may lack polish
  • What's My IP Address – Mac App Store alternative with additional features but paid
