Abstract Sorption‐based atmospheric water harvesting (SAWH) is a promising technology to alleviate freshwater scarcity. Recently, hygroscopic salt‐hydrogel composites (HSHCs) have emerged as attractive candidates with their high uptake, versatile designability, and scale‐up fabrication. However, achieving high‐performance SAWH applications for HSHCs has been challenging because of sluggish kinetics, attributed limited mass transport properties. Herein, universal network engineering hydrogels using cryogelation method presented, significantly improving the kinetics HSHCs. As result entangled mesh confinements formed during cryogelation, stable macroporous topology attained maintained within obtained entangled‐mesh (EMHs), leading enhanced properties compared conventional dense (CDHs). With it, corresponding EMHs (HEMHs) simultaneously exhibit faster moisture sorption solar‐driven desorption.
