The cover picture shows post‐functionalization of conducting polymers using electrochemical approaches. The electricity‐driven post‐functionalization achieved the various transformation of chemical structures of the conducting polymers, leading to fine‐tuning of their properties, and surface modification of the conducting polymer films. The recent developments in electrochemical polymer reaction of conducting polymers are summarized from the viewpoints of reaction systems and electrolytic methodologies.
