Adhesive hydrogels characterized by structural properties similar to the extracellular matrix, excellent biocompatibility, controlled degradation, and tunable mechanical properties have demonstrated significant potential in biomedical applications, including tissue engineering, biosensors, and drug delivery systems. These hydrogels exhibit remarkable adhesion to target substrates and can be rationally engineered to meet specific requirements. In recent decades, adhesive hydrogels have experienced significant advancements driven by the introduction of numerous multifunctional design strategies. This review initially summarizes the chemical bond‐based design strategies for tissue adhesion, encompassing static covalent bonds, dynamic covalent bonds, and non‐covalent interactions. Subsequently, the multiple functionalities imparted by these diverse design strategies, including highly stretchable and tough performances, responsiveness to microenvironments, anti‐freezing/heating properties, conductivity, antibacterial activity, and hemostatic properties are discussed. In addition, recent advances in the biomedical applications of adhesive hydrogels, focusing on tissue repair, drug delivery, medical devices, and wearable sensors are reviewed. Finally, the current challenges are highlighted and future trends in this rapidly evolving field are discussed.
