We’re excited to announce that Octopus now offers the ability for drivers to link their Uber accounts! This feature is something drivers have been asking for, and we’re thrilled to bring it to you. By linking your Uber account, you can easily maximize your earnings and make the most of your time on the road with JourneyTV.

Once Link is complete, the tablet will be enrolled in JourneyTV, meaning you will begin showing the JourneyTV experience during Uber trips. This enrollment process will be completed within 30 minutes.
