First, if an app is installed, you can't install it again, you have to uninstall it first.

Second, if the app is on the SD card, and you just wipe the card, Android still shows the app installed, so you can't install it again,but most of the file is missing (it was on the SD card) so you can't uninstall it. A good reason to not put apps on the SD card.

On emulated (that's internal storage), just uninstall the app first.
