IP Notify

IP Notify is a small software application developed specifically for helping find out your IP address and show all sorts of notifications when the IP address is changed. It can be deployed on all Windows versions out there.

You can find the program running quietly in the system tray. It shows notifications only when the IP address is altered. You cannot appeal to a help manual to read more about the configuration process. However, you can manage to set up the dedicated parameters on your own because they look easy to work with.

A right-click on its tray icon gives you quick access to the configuration panel and allows you to hide or show the main window.

IP Notify gives you the possibility to check out your IP address directly in the main window. Plus, you are allowed to copy it to the clipboard so you can quickly transfer data into other third-party utilities. You can make the application automatically copy the IP address to the clipboard.

When it comes to setting up notifications, you are offered the freedom to execute a custom script, run a user-defined executable file, start or stop the monitoring process, show notifications using Gmail or MSN popup windows, play custom sound alters by importing WAV files from your computer, and show notifications at a custom number of minutes.

Other important options worth being mentioned enable you to automatically run the tool at Windows startup and open it minimized, as well as automatically start the monitoring process when you open the program.

Tests have pointed out that IP Notify carries out tasks quickly. It remains light on system resources so the overall performance of the computer is not burdened. On the downside, it has not benefitted from updates for a long time so you may experience compatibility issues on newer platforms like Windows 10 and 8.

To sum things up, IP Notify provides a simple software solution for helping you keep an eye on your IP address and detect changes on the fly. It can be handled by beginners and professionals alike.
