Tackling Screen Time with Wyzly.

How Street Poller Media utilized relatable parenting questions to drive massive user acquisition for Wyzly.

The Challenge.

Screen time management apps are often seen as intrusive. Wyzly needed a way to frame their app as a helpful tool rather than a strict monitor.

  • Need to appeal to modern parents
  • High CPA in competitive app markets
