⚠️ Known Leak Risks With Hide.me

🔴

WebRTC Leak Risk Chrome and Firefox can expose your real IP through WebRTC even when Hide.me is active. Our test checks this automatically.

🟡

DNS Leak Risk If your browser uses its own DNS resolver, queries bypass the VPN tunnel. This reveals your browsing history to your ISP.

🟢

Canvas Fingerprint Hide.me does not change your browser fingerprint. Ad networks can still track you via Canvas even with VPN active.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Hide.me hide my IP address?

Hide.me replaces your real IP with a server IP. However, WebRTC leaks in your browser can still expose your real IP. Connect to Hide.me, then run our test to confirm your IP is truly hidden.

How do I know if Hide.me is connected?

Run our IP checker at whoer.live while connected to Hide.me. If the country shown matches your VPN server (not your real country), your VPN is working. Our tool also detects whether your ISP is a residential ISP or a VPN datacenter provider.

Can Hide.me be detected by websites?

Yes. Whoer Live checks your IP against VPN provider and datacenter IP ranges. If your IP belongs to Hide.me's infrastructure, websites and ad platforms can detect you are using a VPN. Residential proxies are harder to detect. Run our test to see your exact detection status.
