Milith Rusignuolo posted an alternative Bigender flag design on July 13th, 2015. Secondary colours were used, which represent a blend between two colours. The plus sign symbol comes from the stylized spelling of the word as ''"bi+gender''", as well as representing putting two things together. The yellow, white, and blue were added for aesthetic reasons.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20180210192310/https://avia-viridis.neocities.org/flags.html</ref>
An additional bigender flag was proposed by Tumblr user lestis on August 31st, 2019, with the following meanings expanded upon.<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=https://lestis.tumblr.com/post/187407751319/bigender-flag-redesign-i-wanted-to-give-my-own}}</ref>
* Red represents feminine or feminine-aligned identities, alternating from the cisnormative pink to express and acknowledge the alternative expression that many bigender individuals experience.
* Red-orange represents combination and fluidity, for multiple identifications of gender that may both change through time or that may coexist alongside each other.
* Pear represents community and allyship, as many bigender individuals identify as bigender but also identify with other genders independently.
* Yellow is a common color in flags used to represent non-binary communities, which reflects the community aspect as well. White represents non-binary identities, mimicking the original bigender flag and the trans flag in its meaning.
* Yellow-green represents presentation, and is meant to highlight the diverse presentation of bigender individuals. Yellow is also a common color in flags used to represent nonbinary communities, and the green is associated with nature and growth.
* Blue represents masculine or masculine-aligned identities, the color is deeper to express the connection that many bigender individuals have that differs from cis identification to masculinity.
Tumblr user zombifisgender posted their flag at an unknown date, and reposted it to their new blog mogaiphobic on April 12, 2020. Pinks mean femininity, going from a dark to light pink to show different levels (strong - low) of connection to being feminine/female. Blues mean masculinity, going from dark to light blue to show different levels (strong - low) of connection to being masculine/male. Yellow represents neutrality, and having a non-binary gender. Purple represents genders mixing/co-existing. White represents the non-binary nature of the gender.<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=https://mogaiphobic.tumblr.com/post/615211616742555648/bigender-flag-redesign-you-may-recognize-this/}}</ref>

Instagram user double_gender published their redesign on April 8, 2021. It was intended to keep the original flag's colors, but with a different order. The "rose of the winds" in the center was placed to represent "total freedom over which of these two genders you can live," and was designed to resemble a compass.
