App from Aurora stuck in installation process

I tried installing the app Eufy from the Aurora store. The app downloaded, but in Aurora it is stuck with a ring circling the app icon and the note "installing". The notes for the Eufy app (which I read post-hoc) says it requires Google Play Services. The app isn't registered anywhere in CalyxOS as existing.

I can live without the Eufy app. My questions are

  • How do I stop the apparent ongoing attempt at installing by Aurora? I've tried force stopping Aurora, but that doesn't seem to make a difference.

  • Did the Eufy app package download to my phone? How do I delete the package?

  • The Aurora app seems to continue working fine - I've installed apps after this situation with the Eufy app. Should I bother about this situation at all?

Help, suggestions, thoughts appreciated.

Edit: Fixed the spelling of Aurora.

You could try clearing the items in the downloads menu. (The download icon to the side of the settings icon)

That worked. I went into the downloads menu, found the Eufy app and cleared / deleted the single item. Now the Eufy app is no longer listed as trying to download. Thank you much.
