Hey everyone,
So I’ve been using Brave Browser for a while now, and I gotta say, it’s pretty solid for privacy. But I’ve been wondering, *does Brave browser change my IP address*? Like, I know it blocks trackers and ads, but does it actually hide or change my IP?
From what I’ve read, Brave itself doesn’t change your IP address directly. It’s not a VPN, ya know? But it does have some cool features like Tor integration (in private tabs) that *can* mask your IP. So if you’re using that, then yeah, your IP changes. Otherwise, nah, it stays the same.
Kinda wish it had a built-in VPN tho, lol. But for now, I guess pairing it with a VPN is the way to go if you really wanna hide your IP.
What do y’all think? Anyone else confused about this at first?
Hey! So, does Brave browser change my IP address? Nope, not by itself. It’s not a VPN, so your IP stays the same unless you use the Tor integration in private tabs. That’s the only way Brave can mask your IP.
If you’re looking to hide your IP, I’d recommend pairing Brave with a VPN like NordVPN or ExpressVPN. They work great together, and you get the best of both worlds—privacy from Brave and IP masking from the VPN.
Also, check out ProtonVPN if you want a free option. It’s not as fast as paid ones, but it gets the job done!
Wait, so does Brave browser change my IP address? Nah, it doesn’t. It’s more about blocking trackers and ads, not hiding your IP.
But like, if you’re super worried about your IP, just use the Tor feature in Brave. It’s built-in, and it’ll route your traffic through the Tor network, which changes your IP.
Or, like others said, get a VPN. I use Surfshark, and it’s pretty cheap. Works well with Brave too.
Does Brave browser change my IP address? Short answer: No. Brave isn’t designed to do that. It’s more about blocking ads and trackers, not masking your IP.
But yeah, the Tor thing is cool. If you open a private tab with Tor, it’ll hide your IP. Otherwise, you’ll need a VPN.
I’ve been using Brave with Mullvad VPN, and it’s been solid. Mullvad’s privacy-focused, so it’s a good match for Brave.
Does Brave browser change my IP address? Not really. It’s not a VPN, so it doesn’t hide your IP. But it’s still awesome for privacy with all the tracker blocking.
If you wanna hide your IP, just use the Tor private tabs. Or, like, get a VPN. I use CyberGhost, and it’s been great.

But honestly, if you’re serious about hiding your IP, just get a VPN. I use ExpressVPN with Brave, and it’s been a game-changer.
Also, Brave’s Tor feature is neat, but it’s slower than a VPN. So, depends on what you’re looking for.

Thanks for all the replies, everyone! So, does Brave browser change my IP address? I get it now—it doesn’t unless I use Tor.
I tried the Tor private tabs, and it worked, but it’s kinda slow. I think I’ll pair Brave with a VPN like ExpressVPN or NordVPN, as some of you suggested.
Also, thanks for the PrivacyTools.io recommendation—super helpful! I’ll check it out.
Appreciate all the insights!
