How To Customize Android Notification Bar
How To Customize Android Notification Bar
Toggles on Notification bar help us to easily enable/disable or navigate to settings,tasks etc. In stock android ROM there is a limited number of notification toggles and there is no option to edit those toggles. If you have a custom ROM based on AOSP/AOKP then you can add or customize the notification toggles easily.
For custom notification toggles i am not going to recommend you to flash a custom ROM. Without having a custom or rooted ROM you can add and customize notification toggles by installing free or paid apps.
I prefer Notification Toggles and 1Tap quick Bar. These apps are free for download. To enable the premium features you can buy the full version from PlayStore. I am happy with the free version.
- Possible to add many toggles in one line

Cons:
- Installed apps icons are a little big
- default toggle icons are not much attractive when compared with 1Tab Quick Bar
- UI is not much attractive
- UI is attractive and user friendly
- Possible to add Installed apps to notification bar
- Possible to add background to the notification bar
- Installed apps icons are better size when compared with Notification Toggle
- Default toggle icons are better than Notification Toggle
Cons:
- Possible to add only 6 icons per notification bar
- Free version limited with 1 notification bar
Note : Above is my review for the Free versions of the apps. The premium version may be more attractive.
