ABSTRACT Hydrogels have emerged as dependable candidates for tissue repair because of their exceptional biocompatibility and tunable mechanical properties. However, conventional hydrogels are vulnerable to damage owing stress environmental factors that compromise structural integrity reduce lifespan. In contrast, self‐healing with inherent ability restore structure function autonomously offer prolonged efficacy enhanced appeal. These can be engineered into innovative forms including stimulus‐responsive, self‐degradable, injectable, drug‐loaded variants, thereby enhancing applicability in wound healing, drug delivery, engineering. This review summarizes the categories mechanisms hydrogels, along biomedical applications, repair, biosensing. Tissue includes bone‐related nerve cardiac repair. Additionally, we explored challenges continue face presented a forward‐looking perspective on development. Consequently, it is anticipated will progressively designed developed applications extend beyond broader range applications.
