How to play Jeopardy! with Drivetime
Simply download Drivetime and tap the Jeopardy! icon from the main screen. From here, choose the episode you want to play. If you’re playing the daily free episode, simply scroll to the top of the feed to select it. When you’re ready to get started, round up your players (everyone in the car or just you) and tap Play. Drivetime will request permission to use your microphone. This is normal, since your microphone is necessary to hear your vocal commands and answers to your questions. Once you’ve given the app permission to access your mic, the game will start. If you need to pause for any reason, or you’re just tired of playing, simply press the menu button on the top right corner and the game will pause and show your friend lists, leaderboards and other settings. Playing games while driving can be fun, but remember safety first. It’s probably best not to play any games when traffic is bad or the weather conditions require all of your attention.
