In Google Play Console there's a filter called "Installed from: Google Play". What does that mean? I can't find any documentation about it.
It means an app installed from the Play Store, so not installed from another store or sideloaded.

but how to change the Searchable name from Google Play Console?
If you want to give some alternate keywords to your app to boost up searching, you all need to do it from Google play console.
You can add keyword to your app Title.
You can add keywords to app description as well.
In setting of Google play console, in Developer name you can give keyword. It helps for searching app(not recommended)
To search app easily in play store use some unique or tough characters. Even good rating and more downloads can increase SEO.
To change app name- Select app in google play console-->Setting-->Title.
Hope it helps.

As #Muhammad Babar suggested, you need to wait since it may take some days until you see the app in Google Play Store properly. Please check this link for the list of duplicate questions. When you first publish your application, you need to be patient and wait for Google Play to update and process your application.
What is the practical method to remove an obsolete app in Google Play so no user accidentally install it?
Years ago I unlisted a few Google Play apps because they were obsolete and are no longer working with the current version of our service.
Still screenshots of these apps appear in Google search results, especially in the image search results.
These results come from third party sites that most likely profit from ads by cloning content from google play store. Example of these sites are apkpure, mobogenie, downloadapk, apkzip, apkgk.
These sites link back to the unlisted app in Google Play making it appear legit.
Google is very clear that you can't delete an app.
Is there a practical method to "delete" the app?
I've considered replacing all images in the Google Play listing with text such as "DO NOT INSTALL".
If you unpublish it, new users can't install it, even if they find it through search results.
