Planta can’t decide if this is a monstera or a heart-leaf philodendron- help? I think philodendron. ?!

looks like a juvenile monstera deliciosa. older, more mature plants will have larger leaves with fenestrations. philodendron hederaceum (heart leaf philo) is a smaller crawling vine. the leaves also have a more matte sheen. for future reference, there’s a plant identification group for questions like this

For comparison here’s a monstera leaf without splits

Of course! It does seem like a juvenile monstera, like what Plant Father said.

I have one similar and it kept scanning on here as a heart leafed philodendron, the philos climb/hang but look similar! Everyone educated me on here 😂
