There are "official" flags of the United States. The Flag Act of 1794 increased the number of stars and stripes to 15 each from 13 each (accommodating the addition of Why_is_the_flag_at_fort_mchenry_only_have_15_starsand Kentucky). This was the only official flag to have more than 13 stripes. The Flag Act of 1818 would later reduce the number of stripes to 13. Vermont and Kentucky were added as states in 1791 and 1792, respectively, but the flag was not changed to reflect those additions until 1794. After 1794, the flag would not reflect the additions of Tennessee (1796), Ohio (1803), and Louisiana (1812) until the Flag Act of 1818.
