There are a lot of buttons in the status bar (Wifi, Bluetooth, etc), how can I add a button there which will be connected to a function in my code so when the user press the button the function will get called? (Even if the app isn't open) Image of the buttons that I'm talking about

You can use TileService to add a custom Quick Setting tile of your app.
Add this code in the Manifest file : (make sure you put your label and icon in the code)
<service
android:name=".MyQSTileService"
android:label="@string/my_default_tile_label"
android:icon="@drawable/my_default_icon_label"
android:permission="android.permission.BIND_QUICK_SETTINGS_TILE">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.service.quicksettings.action.QS_TILE" />
</intent-filter>
</service>
And create a MyQSTileService.java class which extends TileService: You can override various methods of the TileService class to perform actions at various events. Here I just overrode the onClick method which will be called when your qs tile is clicked.
public class MyTileService extends TileService {
@Override
public void onClick() {
// Perform your action here
super.onClick();
}
}
