Check your USB-C port first
Not every USB-C port can send video. Many phones and some laptop ports cannot. Look for a small screen or Thunderbolt lightning-bolt symbol next to the port, or check the spec sheet for DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt. Some ports carry video without a symbol, so check your laptop’s specs if you are unsure. If you cannot tell and you use a Windows PC or Mac, pick the adapter that works on any USB-C data port; it works either way once its driver is installed.
