DAT introduces widget for iPhone to help owner-operators find loads faster
PORTLAND, Ore., March 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DAT Freight & Analytics today introduced the DAT One iOS widget for iPhone, displaying load matches directly on the home screen to help carriers capitalize on real-time rate trends without opening the DAT One app.
The DAT One iOS widget refreshes automatically and shows the top three loads with the highest rate per mile based on the most recent search in the DAT One app, providing a competitive edge in a fast-moving freight market.
"Owner-operators told us they want their best load matches readily visible, without having to open their phone," said Christian Greiner, DAT General Manager, Carrier Segment. "The DAT One iOS widget helps them find their next load at a glance."
Key features:
- Live load matches on the home screen: See top-paying results and call brokers directly, without navigating screens.
- Relevant results: Uses saved search preferences (radius, equipment type, location) to show only top-matching loads, refreshed every five minutes.
- One-tap broker contact: Call or email the broker from the widget with a single tap.
To add the DAT One iOS widget, press and hold the iPhone home screen, tap Edit, then Add Widget. Search for DAT One, choose the widget, and drag it onto the home screen.
DAT One is a unified mobile app for DAT subscribers that combines the industry's largest load board with trip-planning tools, fuel prices, parking, broker vetting, and fast payment services all in one place. For more information, visit dat.com/mobile-app.
