Although they’re both owned by Google , Waze and Google Maps still fiercely compete with one another. Not only that, but they have very different feature sets and picking the wrong one could leave you without access to some essential navigation tricks. Since Waze was acquired by the Mountain View firm for almost $1 billion back in 2013, features have slowly started to migrate from one to the other. In the last year, Google Maps has gained the ability to alert users to speed cameras, an icon showing their travelling speed and more, bringing it to parity with Waze in many respects.

But Waze has edged ahead of Google Maps once more with a new feature that allows it to track toll prices across the UK and Republic of Ireland.

That means the app will alert you if a route you’ve planned has any fees to pay along the way. Plus, Waze will also let users plan multiple routes and compare prices of tolls between them. Handy right?

The new Waze feature is no doubt designed to help motorists avoid fines for being unaware of toll zones and prices, something you won't be alerted to if you're using Google Maps.

According to the mapping firm, the functionality was made possible due to its dedicated community of over 30,000 active map editors.
