I have a phone running stock Android 13 and every few days a folder is created called Cache and inserts some generic images into the folder.
Does anyone have ideas on how I can identify which app is doing this?

Probably your photo gallery caching thumbnails of photos u have. From terminal it should bd possible to know but not sure if there is an app for it
They said “generic images” so it sounds like it’s not photos.
No the images are not caches of my photos they are more generic modern art stuff and the same every time.
I should have screenshot it.
Probably some kind of wallpaper app then? Or maybe a video call app downloading backgrounds?
You could try limiting files permissions on a bunch of apps to see what gets them to stop.
The only things that say they have file permissions are the usual messaging apps like Whatsapp, Signal, Messenger, and Discord along with Firefox, dropbox and onedrive. But there are other apps that have file access but don’t come up in the list of permissions like Files, Smart Audiobook player, and Podcast Addict.
