I don’t remember the name of these plants, but I’m betting you people can identify no problem. They were both bought at the same time but one of them is dying. It was initially on the other side of the door. They thought maybe the sun was killing it and moved it to the shade, but it doesn’t seem to me improving. Is it gone? Can it be brought back? Please advise.

Please note I'm not a horticulturist! That plant (at least the one in good condition) looks like an Impatiens to me. According to https://www.thespruce.com/shade-tolerant-impatiens-flowers-2132141 you need partial/full shade. That wilt does look like sun damage to me, so that's my guess. It also needs well-drained soil, so maybe also check how it's been watered recently.
Thank you! That makes total sense. I'll let them know. On a different note, reddit is(was?) my go to spot for stuff like this where I need advice on something I don't know much about. I made this post here instead of reddit, and wanted to see if the fediverse is truly a reddit replacement. I'm glad to see that it already is.
