Each device (Computers, iPhone, Tablet PC, iPad) which is connected to a public internet is assigned with a unique numerical digits, these are known as Internet Protocol (IP) address . The IP address of four numbers separated by decimal points (also called 'point four'), looks something like 127.0.0.1.

Sometimes an IP address can be used to display the user's approximate location.
