Experience & key features
What Wayground is
Wayground is the new name of Quizizz, announced on 24 June 2025. The company says it has grown from a quiz tool into an AI-supported supplemental learning platform. Accounts, classes and data carried over, quizizz.com redirects to wayground.com, and Quizizz Inc. remains the legal entity.
How it works
Teachers have AI draft activities from a topic, document or standard, then run them as a game or a formal exam. The same content can become auto-graded homework, flashcards or an exit ticket. Videos can carry questions, and slides translate as they are taught. Per the plans page, even Basic includes 20+ accommodations such as Read Aloud. These are vendor descriptions, not independently verified results.
Pricing and value
There are three tiers. Basic is free, capped at 100 students per session and 20 stored activities; the Individual pricing page adds that Basic activities expire after 14 days. Individual (called Super in the help center) costs $18/month billed annually at $216 in the US, with a 7-day trial, and unlocks unlimited storage and AI credits. School and District is quote-based and adds LMS integrations, a shared library and AI grading.
More analysis
Compared with alternatives
Wayground competes directly with Kahoot! on game-based quizzing and with Quizlet on flashcards, while Google Classroom focuses on assigning and grading. Assigning through Google Classroom and Microsoft Teams works on every plan, but Canvas, Schoology, Moodle and Brightspace need a school plan. Its strengths are AI content generation and student accommodations.

Privacy
The privacy policy (revised 9 June 2026) says Wayground does not rent, sell or exchange personal information, runs no personalised ads and uses no third-party trackers. Students can join games without an account; for children under 13 it collects only a parent or guardian email and possibly a first name. It uses AI providers such as OpenAI and Anthropic to help create materials, says no personal data is sent to them, and has disabled their use of user data for training. AI tools are on by default, and users can choose not to use them. It states COPPA compliance and helps schools meet FERPA; the homepage shows SOC 2 and ISO badges without further detail. On Google Play the developer declares no data collected or shared.

Why this score
Students join via link or code without an account; the interface is English only. The app rates 4.8/5 on the App Store (about 41,900 ratings) and 4.7/5 on Google Play (about 220,000 reviews).
Why this score
Covers assessments, slides, videos with questions, flashcards, AI generation, anti-cheating tools and a 20M+ resource library per the help center. Many advanced features, such as full AI grading and LTI integrations, need a school plan.
Why this score
The free plan works for small classes but is clearly capped on storage and students. Individual at $216 a year in the US is a notable cost for one teacher, and school pricing is not public.
Why this score
No independent speed or uptime data was found, so this is a moderate score based mainly on the two app-store ratings.
Why this score
The help center covers each plan, each integration and the rebrand. School plans include a dedicated Customer Success Manager; free-plan teachers mostly rely on docs and email.
Why this score
No data sales, no personalised ads, no third-party trackers, stated COPPA compliance and no AI training on user data. On the downside, AI is on by default and runs through outside providers, and SOC 2 and ISO claims appear only as badges.
