3rd time this week it’s acting whack. Wondering if the military is purposely reducing accuracy or if it’s a problem on my end.

The military doesn’t control GPS. Most apps are using third party APIs like TomTom and half of those APIs are controlled by companies in other countries. Waze is Israeli for example.
I’ve heard in times of crisis/war they can turn it off or reduce its accuracy.
Like when Iraqi GPS jamming equipment were destroyed by GPS guided munitions. GPS jamming equipment like theirs only worked against ground based or very low altitude receivers. GPS guided munitions are set on their way using GPS, inertia does the rest.
