title: How to Show Status Bar Icons on the Right like Betternet?
body: <p>Before you flag this as duplicate, I researched this question a long time ago and found <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/2540067/543711">this</a> and <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/32210154/543711">this</a>, which both suggest that the right side of the notification bar is a <em>system apps ONLY zone</em>.</p>
  
  <p>However, I recently used <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.freevpnintouch&amp;hl=en" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Betternet</a> and after connecting to the VPN, these two icons appear:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/sRrvb.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/sRrvb.jpg" alt="Betternet app screenshot"></a></p>
  
  <p>Betternet is not a system app, and my HTC On3 M8 is <em>not</em> rooted. <strong>How did they do it?</strong></p>
