Useless app icon

[xI am a Martian]

Their is an app icon in my app list that is labeled as instant app. It's gray with a lighting bolt. When I click on it, it opens my gallery.
When I long press on it and click app details it comes up as the play store.
If I disable it, it will remove my play store app and I would have to redownload it again which would result in the instant app icon coming back.
I've tried hiding it but whenever I download a new app or comes right back.
Hope someone has a solution for this issue im having.

You can go into your play store settings and uncheck instant apps. I don't believe you can uninstall it, it's part of Google
