This app joins the power of the device's location and its Augmented Reality capabilities to provide you with the best AR-Maps experience. The app uses MapKit, CoreLocation and ARKit to place a path and arrows guiding the user to the desired destination. All the user needs to do is press on a location on the map or type an address within a 10 mile radius from the users location, then the shortest walking path to the location will be displayed, press on the button label AR on the right bottom corner of the map and it'll take you to the AR View, the path will then automatically be render for you.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AR at none against Augmented Reality Map's 1. AR also leads on ratings volume (3 vs 1). Augmented Reality Map's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.0 vs 3.7). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
