This guide walks you through the different methods for removing annotations in your document. If you need assistance recovering previously removed annotations, refer to the Restore annotations guide.
How can I delete annotations in Kami?
In addition to the Eraser tool, you can delete annotations in Kami in several ways, including individually or at the same time. Learn more about each method in the sections below.
Note that teachers can delete any student or collaborator annotations if they are the file owner. Students can only delete the annotations they've made on shared files.
If you've made a mistake and need assistance bringing back a previously deleted annotation, check out the Restore annotations feature.
