Tetrazine can act as an effective singlet oxygen quencher of halogenated BODIPY photosensitizers. In their Communication on page 12868 ff., O. Vázquez and co‐workers report bioorthogonal, activatable probes that allow both organelle‐specific localization and conditional singlet oxygen production simultaneously. These compounds open new avenues to combat the current limitations of photodynamic therapy. Cover design: Prof. M. Eugenio Vázquez.
