does anyone know what this succulent might be? I think it might be a cotyledon but I’m not sure.

I have something similar. It’s a traveling jade or elephant plant. It doesn’t like too much water or direct sunlight. The app says water every three weeks but it was dying with that schedule. Now I water it every two weeks or sooner if it’s too dry. This plant is easy but fickle as well. 🤣

String of banana or string of tears, I'm not really sure

Seconding the guesses of string of bananas. Could it be a string of tears? The little bulbs look a bit more plump than bananas.
