Polyoxometalates (POMs) have attracted much attention in the field of photochromic materials. However, POM-based photochromic supramolecular hydrogels with high transparency and good photochromic properties are seldom reported. In this work, a homogenous, optically transparent, injectable, and photochromic supramolecular hydrogel was
