I got this at a nursery outlet. It looks very droopy and the leaves are crunchy. How can I revive it? I own other plants but this is my first philodendron and I don’t know the specific type.

It’s a painted lady. It honestly doesn’t look to be in bad health. Just a bit damaged. The newest leaf looking droopy is something Philodendrons do about a week after unfurling, and in another week or so it will be back to being firm. It’s a climber and will like to have some support or mosspole to climb up against.
I feel the pot is a bit too big. They are sensitive to overwatering.
Repot into chunky, well draining soil. The coir stuff the nurseries sell them in will kill them when you bring them home
