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.

It was a disappointing night in Athens: The Werkself lost 2-0 away to Olympiacos on Matchday 7 in the league phase of the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League campaign. In a match that was intense and fiery from the outset, the high-pressing home side made the better start and took the lead through Costinha on two minutes. Although the Werkself had a number of chances to equalise, the clinical Greek side increased the lead to 2-0 shortly before half-time (45+1’). In the second half, Leverkusen once again gave their all and showed total commitment but, despite their best efforts, the Black and Reds were unable to break down the Olympiacos defence on the night.
