I figured it out. You have your phone on do not disturb and the flower icon is for mindfulness. There’s also one for sleep with little moon. I think there’s another one but that’s it.

It is possible that the "flower" symbol you are seeing next to the time on your iPhone 13 is related to a third-party app. Sometimes, app developers use custom icons or symbols to indicate certain app-specific features or notifications.


If you have recently installed or updated a third-party app, it might be responsible for the appearance of the "flower" symbol. To identify the app responsible for this symbol, you can try the following steps:


  1. Think about any new apps you installed or updated recently, especially around the time the "flower" symbol appeared. Check those apps for any settings or features related to the status bar or notifications.
  2. If you suspect a particular app to be the cause of the "flower" symbol, you can try disabling or uninstalling it temporarily to see if the symbol disappears.
  3. Some apps might request access to your location, and they could use custom icons to indicate when they are actively using it. Check your app permissions and see if any app has location access. To do this, go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services. Then, scroll down to the list of apps and find the app that is using your location in the background. Tap on the app and then toggle off the Allow Location Access switch.
  4. If you are still unsure about the "flower" symbol's origin, you can try searching online for any discussions or forums where other iPhone users might have encountered a similar symbol and have found the app responsible for it.
  5. Sometimes, restarting your iPhone can help clear any temporary glitches or bugs that may be causing unusual symbols to appear in the status bar.
