PORTLAND, Ore. — DAT Freight & Analytics is introducing the DAT One iOS widget for iPhone.

“Owner-operators told us they want their best load matches readily visible, without having to open their phone,” said Christian Greiner, general manager, carrier segment, DAT. “The DAT One iOS widget helps them find their next load at a glance.”

The widget displays 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.

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.
