iPhone 8 just starts spazing out, and types whatever instead of what I am intending to type

My phone does this weird thing, usually in the afternoons for some reason. It just starts spazing out, and types whatever instead of what I am intending to type. This morning, I was attempting to open an app, and my phone decided to open the app it wanted to open. Usually, I can turn my phone off and then turn it back on after a few minutes. Why is it doing this?

Sounds like a touchscreen error. See this for troubleshooting, Get help with the display on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support and if that does not fix the issue, then make a Genius Bar appointment to have the device examined by Apple. They will explain your options.
