Abstract: Using self-assembly methods to prepare nanoscale porphyrin functional materials with excellent physicochemical properties has become a research focus，as it offers great potential application prospects for molecular devices and artificial photosynthesis. This review provides details for multiple-porphyrin as well as single-porphyrin self-assembly methods. In particular，mixing solvent techniques and surfactant-assisted method used in single-porphyrin self-assembly processes are discussed. Application of self-assembled porphyrin nanostructures in light-harvesting antenna and photocatalysis is summarized. Thus far，rich forms of porphyrin-based nanoarchitectures have been assembled. However，there is still a great need in understanding the self-assembly mechanisms and in further developing techniques for the practical applications of porphyrin nanostructures by self-assembly methods.
