In article number 2000827, Zhizhu He and co‐workers report a ferromagnetic liquid metal putty‐like material with unique reconfigurable magnetic polarity, stiffening effect, transformed shape, and high electrical conductivity. It can be used as printable magnetic and conductive ink to enable a series of novel applications, including magnetic switching, flexible magnetic recording paper, and self‐sensing soft robotics using magnetic actuation.
