  For $m\geq 2$, we study derivations on symbol algebras of degree $m$ over
fields with characteristic not dividing $m$. A differential central simple
algebra over a field $k$ is split by a finitely generated extension of $k$. For
certain derivations on symbol algebras, we provide explicit construction of
differential splitting fields and give bounds on their algebraic and
transcendence degrees. We further analyze maximal subfields that split certain
differential symbol algebras.
