2. How to Use ClickDrop with StarryHub Q1 Pro
ClickDrop is compatible with a variety of operating systems, including iOS, Android, Windows (versions 7 through 11), and macOS 10.1 and above.

2.1 Compatible Systems and Devices
Whether you're using an Android phone, a Windows laptop, or an iOS tablet, ClickDrop provides seamless support across multiple devices. Simply plug ClickDrop into your computer or mobile device and wait for the indicator light to turn from flashing to steady blue. This signal means the device is ready for screen casting. From here, a single click on the ClickDrop button starts the screen-sharing process, immediately projecting your device’s content onto StarryHub’s display.
3. Step-by-Step Guide to Start Wireless Screen Sharing with ClickDrop
Using ClickDrop to cast your screen wirelessly with StarryHub Q1 Pro is straightforward. Here’s a quick guide to get started:
Step 1: Plug and Pair
Begin by plugging ClickDrop into the USB port on the back of the StarryHub Q1 Pro. If you're using a USB-C port, attach the included USB-C to USB-A converter to ClickDrop before connecting it to StarryHub. The device will automatically pair with StarryHub, eliminating the need for complex configurations.
Step 2: Wait for Confirmation
Once ClickDrop is connected, wait a few moments until the StarryHub display screen shows “Paired successfully.” This message confirms that the device is ready for screen casting.
Step 3: Start Casting
With the pairing complete, plug ClickDrop into the USB port on your device. After the flashing light turns steady blue, press the ClickDrop button to start sharing your screen instantly. This supports multiple wireless casting protocols, including Miracast, AirPlay, Chromecast, and DLNA, ensuring a smooth and high-quality streaming experience for most devices.
Step 4: Unplug After Use
Once the presentation is over, simply unplug ClickDrop to end the screen-sharing session. This plug-and-play functionality makes it ideal for spontaneous meetings and quick transitions between presenters, as anyone in the room can easily connect and disconnect with minimal hassle.
4. Tips for First-Time Use
If you’re using ClickDrop with a Windows or macOS computer for the first time, a few additional setup steps might be necessary:
- Windows: If the screen-casting interface does not open automatically, navigate to “My Computer > CD Drive > StarryHub ClickDrop” and double-click to run the “StarryHubClickDrop.exe” program.
- macOS: First-time users on macOS may need to input their Apple ID and password and follow on-screen installation instructions.
5. Troubleshooting: No DisplayPort Signal
ClickDrop is compatible only with USB ports that support the DisplayPort protocol. If the StarryHub screen shows a “No DisplayPort Signal” error message, it likely means that the USB port on your computer does not support DisplayPort. In such cases, try connecting ClickDrop to a different USB port or consult your device specifications to confirm compatibility.
