Abstract Zinc‐ion batteries (ZIBs) are regarded as a promising candidate for next‐generation energy storage systems due to their high safety, resource availability, and environmental friendliness. Nevertheless, the instability of Zn metal anode has impeded ZIBs from being reliably deployed in proposed applications. Specifically, dendrite formation hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) on surface significantly compromise Coulombic efficiency cycling stability ZIBs. In recent years, increasing efforts have been devoted overcoming these obstacles by electrode structure design, interface modification, electrolyte/separator optimization. To achieve an insightful comprehensive understanding strategies, it is worth analyzing categorizing them according intrinsic mechanisms. Considering this, overview anodic stabilization strategies provided. First, fundamentals introduced, associated mechanisms presented. Furthermore, HER suppression categorized, discussed, analyzed detail. Last, suggestions deployment research, industrialization, commercialization aspects proposed. It expected that this Review will shed light roadmap exploration novel anodes
