I'm using an Android Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. Snapchat crashed while I was sending a picture, and afterward it would no longer open. I uninstalled it, but now Google Play reaches 100% during the reinstall and then reports that the app couldn't be installed. Other apps install normally, and I have more than 200 GB of free storage. I've already cleared the Google Play Store cache and data, cleared Google Play Services' cache, removed and restored Play Store updates, restarted the phone several times, and tried both Wi‑Fi and mobile data. Could Snapchat have left behind corrupted files, or is there another fix I should try?

It may be a compatibility or app-package problem affecting this particular phone model rather than your storage. Make sure Android, Google Play system updates, and the Play Store are fully updated. If Snapchat still fails while other apps install normally, report it through the Play Store listing or wait for an updated Snapchat release.
I’m seeing the exact same failure on the same Samsung model, so it may be a device-specific Snapchat issue instead of something unique to your phone. The fact that the download reaches 100% but fails during installation points more toward the app package or compatibility check than available space.
Since both Wi‑Fi and mobile data produce the same result, the connection probably isn’t the issue. Check Settings > Apps for Snapchat and Google Play Services, then clear any remaining Snapchat storage or cache if the app entry is still present. Also check the phone’s Files app for leftover Snapchat folders and remove only clearly labeled Snapchat data before restarting and trying again.
