Unrecognized app found on my iPhone

I got into my phone and searched up my apps and found this app that I didn’t download but had downloaded 2 years ago. I deleted the app but am still wondering if I did have a virus on my phone still?

No virus. Someone either had your passcode to your phone 2 years ago and downloaded it on your phone or someone else logged into their device with your Apple ID/Password and downloaded the app on their phone. With the Share Across Devices setting turned on, which is normally the case, it will then appear on your device as well.
