v_trace vs IP Trackers

v_trace is a visual traceroute application that shows* a list of the network servers from your machine to a target ip address or hostname and it attempts to place each to their corresponding location on a map. The map display consists of a pin for each hop, the color of the pins change from green to red reflecting the latency of the hop. *The ability to show and determine hops depends on your network's routing policies, if the packets are filtered no hops can be determined.

IP Trackers shows you the actual path your packets take across the internet. Enter any host or IP, run a trace, and watch each hop appear — then see the whole route drawn on a world map. TRACE ANY HOST • Fast ICMP traceroute to any host name or IP address • Every hop with its round-trip time, reverse DNS name and IP • Timeout hops are marked so you can spot filtering routers at a glance • TCP fallback: destinations that drop ICMP (many large portals and CDNs) are still confirmed via a TCP handshake, so traces complete instead of timing out • Stop a long trace at any time SEE THE ROUTE ON A MAP • Public hops are geolocated (city, region, country, ISP) and plotted on a world map • The route is drawn hop-to-hop so you can see where your traffic actually travels • Select a hop in the list to highlight it on the map DIG INTO ANY HOP • Per-hop detail: TTL, IP, reverse DNS, round-trip time and location • On-demand WHOIS lookup of the hop's registrant — organization, net name, net range, country • Full raw WHOIS text one tap away, ready to share TRACE HISTORY • Every completed trace is saved automatically • Reopen any past trace from the bookmark button — hops, locations and map restore instantly, no re-trace needed MADE FOR YOUR DEVICES • iPhone: a map-first layout — full-screen route map, floating search bar, and the hop list in a draggable bottom sheet • iPad and Mac: hop list and map side by side • Fast, lightweight, and entirely on-device — no account, no sign-up PRIVACY IP Trackers has no analytics, no tracking, and no third-party SDKs. Hop coordinates come from a public IP-geolocation service; WHOIS lookups go directly to the regional registries. Nothing about you is collected or stored.
