Hoist
Your public IP, flying its true colours.
Hoist shows the public IP address your device currently has, overlaid on the slowly-waving country flag of where it geolocates. Tap the flag to see the connection details — hostname, ASN, city, timezone — with a map pin at the approximate location. Add the widget to your home screen and it stays in sync as you switch networks.
What it does
- Public IP address, updated the moment your network changes.
- Country flag of the geolocation — 250+ real vector flags, gently animated.
- Home-screen widget resizable from 1 × 1 to 4 × 5.
- Connection details — hostname, ASN, city, timezone, latitude, longitude.
- Approximate location on a map.
- One-tap shortcut to your Wi-Fi, mobile-data, or VPN settings.

Both apps have the same privacy posture — no account, no telemetry, no analytics. Pro just skips the AdMob SDK entirely.
What Hoist does not do
- No account, no sign-in, no email address.
- No precise GPS location — geolocation is IP-based only.
- No access to your contacts, calendar, camera, microphone, or files.
- No analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting.
