Show IP logins in easy accessible log

Since IP addresses are not shown in security allerts of new login I want an ease accessable "Your Logins", just as you have the "Your Activity", in the program/app and in web login.

Notification just mentioning that there has been a web browser login without mention from where (what IP address) is pretty useless, so I need to see from where the access is to eliminate the suspicion of unauthorized logins somewhere, without searching in settings for open sessions.

Thank you.

    Thank you for sharing where to find recent used IP addresses. It's a start, but it would for sure help if a notification include the IP address used for the "new login". Then the user easily can see if it is a legit login or some stranger. (In my case I see no unknown IP address.)

    As always, I understand that everybody don't have control over their own IP, especially it there are connected remote services, but they usually don't pop up unexpected as "new login".

    Hi MichaelNSwe​,

    Thanks for sharing your idea on the Community.

    I was reading through this and it occurred to me that this might already be in place. If you navigate to the Security tab under settings, you can scroll down and see devices and browsers that have logged into your account.

    If you hover over the info icon on the right hand side, you can see the IP address attributed to each.
