Add-on summary
Shows detailed information about your IP and location. Shows your IPv4 & IPv6 address and also geolocational informations about your IP addresses.
A badge of your current country is shown on the icon, which will refresh every 3s. So you can easily see, if you have a broken VPN or proxy connection when the country-code changes unexpectedly. Additionally a notification appears on your desktop when one of your IP addresses (IPv4 or IPv6) has changed - of course, it can be turned off in settings.
You can also display your position on a map by clicking the corresponding button next to the IP address.
Your user agent is shown in the entries as well.
