It might be too much light? This app does have a scan thing on it and it tells you what it might be?

Looks like it could be Spider Mites, I just dealt with an infestation myself on my alocasia.

It’s hard to tell from the pictures. Check carefully for insects and fine webs especially under the leaves and in the crevices.

Humidity is too low or it doesn’t like tap water.

Agreed. I only use filtered or distilled (when I have it) for my alocasias
