Abstract Hydrogel is a significant type of building block for constructing macroscopic assemblies, the construction of which usually entails the incorporation of supramolecular groups. However, supramolecular group recognition is specific and only suitable for assembling two particular modified hydrogels, but not a versatile strategy. Herein, a universal strategy without modification process is proposed using polyacrylic acid (PAA) hydrogel as the adhesive layer to assemble different kinds of hydrogels. Furthermore, hydrogel assemblies with various shapes and multi‐stimuli responsiveness are constructed by assembling different stimuli‐responsive hydrogels with PAA hydrogel. Therefore, hydrogel assemblies are able to complete bending motions upon applying corresponding stimuli. This strategy provides a universal approach for constructing hydrogel assemblies, and also shows the potential for developing soft robots with versatile functions.
