While working on the new bayer 04.de website, it was important for us to also take a look at our apps. Do we really need two different ones? Shouldn't the target be to take the best from both and bring them together in a completely new app?
So now there is only one Bayer 04 app. But it has a lot to offer. If you can't make it to the stadium on a matchday the live text commentary will keep you right in touch with how the Werkself are doing. It doesn't matter which app you have on your device: Technical barriers have been overcome thanks to its responsive design. The layout adjusts the device. You experience a consistent visual appearance – whether it's on a smart phone or tablet.
And, of course, we've built in a couple of additional features. For example, the push notification with goal alarm without a time delay. So if you always want to keep up-to-date with Bayer 04 wherever you are then just install our app. We'll keep you in touch.

Following the summer break of around two months, the Bayer 04 first team squad took to the training pitches at the BayArena for the first time on Tuesday – and the players were in high spirits.

In front of several hundred Bayer 04 fans at the open session, numerous Werkself players worked up a good sweat. The Leverkusen players who took part in the World Cup will join pre-season training at a later date.
