Starting in the 2023-2024 school year, Kami will replace Squid Notes as the PDF markup and note taking application. It offers many of the same functions as Squid and some new Kami-only features and automatically saves all your Kami documents to your Google Drive.
Below are instructions on getting started with Kami by setting up your account.
After you set up Kami, you can access this knowledge base article for more information on how to use Kami. You can also access Kami’s Help Center for any questions.
