In article 1400388, Q. Yang, F. Chen, and co‐workers demonstrate that underwater lossless oil droplet transportation is achieved based on femtosecond laser ablated superoleophobic surfaces with ultralow oil‐adhesion in water environment. By reversibly switching the density of water solution, the underwater superoleophobic surfaces are endowed with the ability of “pick up” and “put down” the oil droplet in water.
