Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

This is a comment on the paper "Adoption of Health Mobile Apps during the COVID-19 Lockdown: A Health Belief Model Approach." Int. J. Environ. Res. Public Health 2022, 19(7), 4179. The authors provide two issues (which I agree) accompanied by suggestions in that study. The authors consider that suggestions can help future studies.

 

Minor issues:

1. The paper "Adoption of health mobile apps during the COVID-19 lockdown: a Health Belief Model approach" should be cited and included in the reference list.

2. All abbreviations should be declared, e.g., HBM - Health Belief Model (HBM).

3. a couple OF issues? Or let the number explicit, such as "two issues".

4. During the pandemic[add comma here] many services

5. Unpack "App use, however, occurs in the context of wider interpersonal, community, and societal inputs.", perhaps providing an additional explanation.

6. Somehow, the authors could provide possibilities for future studies that include their suggestions.
