Deleted app keeps showing on spotlight iOS 11 - iPhone X

I had an app, I deleted it, but when I type the app's name on Spotlight, it keeps appearing, the icon doesn appear but the name of the app comes up as a result, when I click on it it takes me to the Settings app's main screen but there's no trace of the app because obviously it was deleted. Does anyone know how to stop it from appearing in Spotlight after deleting it?

iPhone X, iOS 11.3.1

I see that you're still continuing to see an app in your Spotlight search after deleting the app. I'd be happy to provide you with some information to try to help with this issue.

Let's have you take a look at this article and attempt to change your search settings:
