As one of the most important stimuli-responsive polymeric materials, shape memory polymers could fix temporary shapes and subsequently recover to the original shape under specific stimuli, and have thus aroused tremendous attention and shown promising applications in many fields such as biomedical, textile, aerospace and so on. The currently developed shape memory polymers are mainly thermo-responsive, in which vitrification or crystallization of the polymer chains are applied as temporary crosslinks to achieve shape memory property, and the shape recovery is induced by heat. In order to realize shape memory performance under mild conditions, supramolecular interactions (hydrogen bonds, host-guest recognition, metal-ligand coordination) and dynamic covalent bonds (boronate ester interactions, Schiff base bonds) have been employed as temporary switches to construct supramolecular shape memory hydrogels (SSMHs). Because of the reversible and dynamic nature of molecular switches, SSMHs could display excellent shape memory behavior at room temperature. In the early stage, only one kind of reversible interaction was utilized to fix one temporary shape in each shape memory cycle, resulting in a dual shape memory effect. Since the number of temporary shapes that could be stabilized normally has a great impact on the potential applications, two or more non-interfering dynamic switches have been incorporated in one system to realize triple or multiple shape memory effect. Moreover, other properties such as self-healing, adhesion, shape deformation and fluorescence have been successfully introduced into SSMHs, a series of multi-functional SSMHs have been developed to broaden their potential applications. In this review, the definition and development of SSMHs are briefly introduced, and recent progress in SSMHs with different kinds of reversible interactions is summarized, followed by the presentation of SSMHs with multiple shape memory effect and multi-functions. Finally, current challenges and future perspectives in this field are also discussed to promote new developing directions.
