PlayXylo is a distraction-free musical app that plays sounds from recordings of a real xylophone. It’s designed to be fun and easy to use for kids and adults alike—perfect for an educational environment. Launch the app and you’ll get the xylophone board quickly-no delays—so you can immediately start playing any tune you want. The controls are what you would expect on a digital xylophone. Tap the keys with your fingers on touchscreen devices, press the corresponding numbers on a keyboard, or just click the colorful keys with your mouse. You can even slide over the board to hit consecutive keys, or use two or more controls at the same time. The distinguishing feature of a xylophone’s sound is the sense of precision that comes from its lack of resonance. PlayXylo uses sound recordings from a real xylophone to give you that same feeling. There are many ways to make the xylophone fit your use case. By default, a beautiful set of rainbow colors are used. In addition, there’s a Boomwhacker version for those using this colorset. A special Solfege mode is available, which replaces the pitch names with Solfege (Do, Re, Mi) to teach kids and students effective reading and singing of music. The chromatic scale is also available, giving you access to all the flats and sharps. Don’t know how or what to play? There is a community section that contains videos of how other PlayXylo users interact with the app for learning, teaching, or just playing. You can find it in the navigation menu. Dark mode follows your system theme, which is perfect for playing lullabies at night. The layout and language of the app and xylophone board also adapts to that of your system.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: PlayXylo at 5.0 against Endless Learning Academy's 4.2. Endless Learning Academy's advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Endless Learning Academy sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and PlayXylo sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
PlayXylo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Endless Learning Academy has 1.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Endless Learning Academy ships an update every 3 weeks, PlayXylo every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
