Hello. Some people seemed to fix it with a factory reset, so I suggest that. Backup all your data (pictures, files, etc.) and see if the reset will fix the problem.

A bad manifest means that part of the app was written wrong, it's not for your make/model/Android version or you got a bad download. If you tried to download it a few times and you still get the problem, it's one of the first two. (A lot of apps won't work on these "made for one country" phones. We see a lot of that with phones made for use in India too.)
