Bright light, like a star, but moving/darting in irregular pattern across sky until it just stopped moving.

As above, at first I thought it was a bright star, but it was moving so I thought it was a satellite. I got my neighbors and said to come look at this satellite. But then as it moved across the sky, it started changing direction, and would actually dart around in an irregular pattern. I thought at times in my peripheral vision close to it there were smaller “sparkles”, but they were brief and I can’t comment further on those. The “star/UFO” eventually stopped moving and remained stationary in the sky like a star.
