With iOS 15 and macOS Monterey, you can hide your IP address in Safari on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. This feature helps protect your personal information and prevents trackers from building your profile based on your online behavior. As part of Apple's Intelligent Tracking Prevention initiative, you can block trackers without spending any money on iCloud+ or installing a third-party VPN service. In an age where malicious actors and ad companies can abuse your data, it's good to have an extra layer of security. On that note, let's check out the steps to hide IP address in Safari in iOS 15 and macOS Monterey!

For the uninitiated, an IP address (stands for Internet Protocol) is an identification number associated with a device. Because the IP address (a string of numbers separated by a period) is unique, it becomes easy to identify a device on the Internet or a local network. Based on your Internet Protocol address, trackers can access information such as your city, zip code, and area code. Moreover, they can even find out whether the IP address is on any blocklists or not.
