What Happened to Quizizz?
The single most important context on this page — because "Quizizz" and "Wayground" are the same platform, wearing a new name.
Quizizz is now Wayground. Officially, the company says the name changed because the platform expanded well beyond interactive quizzes into a broader set of instructional resources — lessons, videos, passages, flashcards, and more sitting alongside the quiz format everyone already knew.
Nothing about your existing setup disappears: accounts, classes, and resources remain available exactly as before. Quizizz Inc. remains the legal entity behind the product, old joinmyquiz.com links still work for joining a game, and existing Quizizz URLs continue to function during the transition.
Why the name changed
The product outgrew "quiz" — it now covers instruction, practice, and assessment in one place.
Your account & classes
Existing resources, classes, and history carry over — no rebuild required.
Old Quizizz URLs
Legacy links and joinmyquiz.com continue to work alongside the new wayground.com domain.
What you need to change
Nothing is required immediately — the official guidance is that no action is needed for users.
What Is Wayground?
A supplemental learning platform built for instruction, practice, and assessment — used by teachers, students, and schools alike.

Wayground Tips & Strategies
Small habits that consistently make a session run better.
For teachers
- Match the question type to the goal — Poll for discussion, Quiz for assessment.
- Preview a Library resource before assigning it, the same as any outside material.
- Check the live report mid-session so you can fix a struggling question in the moment.
For students
- Use self-paced practice to drill weak spots before a live, scored game.
- Review missed questions right after finishing instead of jumping to the next thing.
- Use Flashcards for spaced review a few days before a test, not just the night before.
Wayground / Quizizz Comparisons & Alternatives
How Wayground stacks up against the platforms it's most often compared to.
Wayground vs Kahoot
Wayground leans into broad self-paced and homework support; Kahoot leans into a fast, simple, buzzer-style live format.
Wayground vs Blooket
Blooket wraps quiz content in a wide variety of arcade-style game modes; Wayground stays closer to a consistent quiz-and-report format.
Wayground vs Gimkit
Gimkit layers an in-game economy over quiz content; Wayground focuses more on instruction, standards, and reporting depth.
Wayground vs Quizlet
Quizlet Live centers on collaborative recall; Wayground covers a wider mix of live, homework, and instructional formats.
The right pick usually depends on the moment — fast recall drills, longer strategic sessions, or flexible self-paced homework each favor a different tool.

Existing Quizizz accounts continue working under Wayground with no action required — the same email and password get you in.
Wayground Troubleshooting
Most problems fall into a short, recurring list.
- Can't join / code doesn't workA typo, an already-ended session, or a shaky connection on the joining device.
- Game freezes or won't loadUsually fixed by refreshing, checking the connection, or switching browsers.
- Login problemsA wrong email, a pending password reset, or a school-managed sign-in method.
- Assignment won't openA distribution issue with the link, or a deadline that's already passed.
- AI generation or reports missingUsually a temporary server-side hiccup — a refresh resolves most of these.
Wayground Safety & Privacy
Worth knowing given how widely the platform is used by school-age students.
- Session-specific codesA join code is only valid while that session is active.
- Account vs. guest playA logged-in account retains history and progress; a guest join generally doesn't.
- NicknamesChosen at join time — many schools set expectations around appropriate, non-identifying names.
- Content reviewLibrary content is user-created, so previewing before assigning is good practice.
