Samsung Galaxy S7 won't acknowledge free memory, can't get apps

I recently got a Samsung Galaxy S7 for my birthday, and I've been struggling with the memory since about a week afterwards. As of these past few days, though, I can't download any apps whatsoever. I've cleared away 500 MB+ of memory, taken out the cache, restarted the phone, restarted the Play Store, and disabled the Cloud Backup Service, in case I need some of that memory for whatever reason. Nothing I've tried so far has worked. This may be an extension of my S7 having trouble reading my microSD, but I doubt it. I can't download a 30ish MB app, I can't download one that's only 6 MB, I can't even open my Gallery. Is there anything I can do, short of a full-out reset?
 
I would be cautious with "phone cleaner" apps. If they're not designed well, they can sometimes get rid of important files.
