Question! Hey, I’m super new to the plant world and I have a question. I have a philodendron and I repotted it to a pot with holes and ever since I’ve notified right round the center that the soil seems to sit lower. Im wondering if I need to build the soil up to level with the rest of the soil or not. Would love any insight! Hopefully these pics give you an idea, it was hard to capture on my phone

You want the soil right at the base of the plant but no higher. Sometimes the soil will settle after it's been watered in a time or two. Yours looks fine. If it were to have settled more than you could have added a little soil to it.
