Click the button below to find your current location using your device’s own GPS/location services. Your browser will ask for permission first — nothing is looked up until you approve it.
Your device asks you directly for permission before sharing any location — nothing is looked up until you allow it. Only the coordinates (not any other device information) are sent to our server, once, to look up a readable address for them.
How This Tool Works
This tool uses your browser’s built-in Geolocation API — the same permission prompt you see in map or weather apps — to ask your device for its current coordinates. Your device (not our server) determines your location using whatever it has available: GPS, Wi-Fi positioning, or your network connection, so accuracy varies by device and location. Once we have your coordinates, they’re sent through our server to a reverse-geocoding service to find a readable address, the same way our Coordinates to Address tool works.
We do not store your location. It exists only in your browser and, briefly, in the request to look up the address — never logged or saved on our end.
FAQ
Why did my browser ask for permission?
Browsers require explicit permission before any website can access your location, as a privacy protection. You can deny it, and revoke it later from your browser’s site settings.
Why is my location slightly off?
Accuracy depends on your device. A phone with GPS enabled is usually accurate to a few meters; a desktop computer relying on Wi-Fi/IP-based positioning can be off by a much larger distance, sometimes an entire neighborhood or city.
What if I deny the permission request or it fails?
The tool shows a clear message explaining what happened — permission denied, location unavailable, or the request timed out — rather than failing silently.
