In their Minireview on page 15963 ff., Olaf Stefańczyk and Shin‐ichi Ohkoshi look at how magnetic interactions and the reversible sorption/desorption of water from humid air inside porous materials can be combined to give switchable magnetic materials that are humidity‐responsive. In this manuscript, the most outstanding results for such systems working at normal temperature and pressure are presented to motivate in‐depth research on this topic.
