Redbox has launched an App Store application this week, alongside another app that will publish codes for people to receive free DVD rentals, usually on Mondays.
The main app will help users find the nearest kiosk to their location as well as reserve titles before they get there.
Redbox says the app should help them jump on the explosive growth of the US smartphone market, in which spending on applications is expected to jump to $4.2 billion in 2013, a ten-fold increase from 2009.
There was a similar Redbox app posted 8 months ago by a third-party however Redbox had Apple take it down so they could release their own. The rental coupon code app will cost $0.99.
