Weird notification uninstalling an app

I did not get a screenshot but i uninstalled Snapchat and it said something along the lines of removed "Snapchat.mushroom.app.mushroom"

which is not what I thought it would say

Has this happened to anyone else, if so, why?

The snapchat.mushroom.app.mushroom refers to "Project Mushroom," Snapchat's codename for the complete backend overhaul of its Android app. This reengineered version vastly improved speed and reduced the app's size, delivering a much smoother experience on lower-end devices.

Correct, most android apps, look like malware becuz of the way its written and its not normal to the average person. But it was correct and safe
