Any help identifying plant? The tag said philodendron but every plant app identifies it as a monstera. Are they similar plants?

They are a related species, Arceae. When I was young we called it a split leaf philodendron. You have a monstera.

I thought so. Thank you!

I’ll vote monstera. It’s a very pretty and healthy looking one too.
