Find My Current Address
We detect your coordinates with your device's GPS, then reverse-geocode them into a readable address — city, state or region, country, and postal code.
Your Location
Nothing detected yet — your location stays private until you ask.
Click “Detect My Location” and allow the permission prompt your browser shows. We only read your position after you approve it — nothing runs in the background.
Location Unavailable
Something went wrong.
Not your live GPS position — a looked-up location you can still view, map, and share.

What Is Reverse Geocoding?
Geocoding turns an address into coordinates ("123 Main St" → 40.71, -74.00). Reverse geocoding does the opposite: it takes a latitude/longitude pair — the kind your browser's GPS produces — and matches it against a map database to find the nearest known place, returning a human-readable address. This tool does the second one, automatically, right after your position is detected.
What Each Address Field Means
City / locality
The nearest populated place — town, city, or named locality — around your coordinates.
State / region
The first-level administrative division — a US state, Canadian province, or equivalent elsewhere.
Country
The country your coordinates fall within, by name.
Postal code
The nearest matching postal/ZIP code, when the underlying map data includes one for your area.
Why the Address Might Be Approximate
Reverse geocoding is only as good as the underlying map data for your area, and it snaps to thenearest known address point rather than performing a legal property lookup. Expect building-level precision in well-mapped cities, and street- or neighborhood-level precision in rural or less-mapped areas. Your underlying coordinates — shown right above the address — are always the more precise, more objective piece of data; the address is a convenience layer on top.
Need the raw numbers instead? See latitude and longitude. Want to drop your address as a pin? See opening it in Google Maps or Apple Maps.
Current Address — FAQ
Why doesn't the address show my exact street and house number?
Reverse geocoding matches your coordinates to the nearest known address point in an open map database. In well-mapped cities that's often precise down to the building; in less densely mapped areas it may only resolve to the nearest street or locality. It's an approximation layered on top of an exact coordinate, not a lookup in a postal registry.
Is the address I see sent to a server and stored?
Your coordinates are sent directly from your browser to a free reverse-geocoding API to compute the address, and the result is displayed on this page. This site has no backend database — nothing is logged or stored on our end. See the Privacy page for exactly what's shared and with whom.
Can I get my address without sharing my exact coordinates?
Reverse geocoding needs a coordinate pair to work — that's the whole mechanism. If you're not comfortable sharing your precise location, simply don't grant the permission prompt; the tool will show nothing.
