YouTube has unveiled a new feature that lets users see, respond to and moderate comments all in one place.

The move comes after changes that were announced in November last year to alter the way users could comment on clips proved to be unpopular among users.

The changes took away a feature that had previously allowed users to manage comments from their YouTube Inbox.

YouTube acknowledged that users of the site were unhappy with the change.

"Many of you have told us that you use your YouTube Inbox to manage comments," the video sharing site.

The company said that as a result it had "fast-tracked" the development of the new comment management system to give users a better way to organise and manage comments.
