How to display countdown timer on status bar in android, like time display? : <p>I am making an app which allows the user to pick a date and time. Once the date and time are reached,it will display an animation on the screen. Before its time, it will just show countdown time (like xxx:xx:xx) on screen. I achieved this using a textview which changes every second. How can I display this text on status bar, like time is displayed</p>

<p>I have tried using Notification constructor like in some post I found here but they are depricated and wont work anymore.
I tried with NotificationCompat.Builder but it doesnt really have a way to set text which could be displayed on status bar.</p>

<p>Anyone knows any work arpund solution for it, please give me an answer. I just need to display a text on status bar insted of icon</p>
