Costa Rica noticias APK: questions and answers
Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Is the Costa Rica noticias APK safe?
No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Unknown. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 61c13b47172fea463a21e27b002ded0d.
