Android identifying what is on the upper part of the android notification bar

Question

Currently I want to make an app but I don't know what this is called , I mean the android term for it, it's definately not a spinner, but more into the notifications.

I want to make an app that I can interact with just like the music bar here that can play music, stop next song , etc.

Can someone help me or tell me what that method is and where can I get some tutorials for it?

Sounds like Notification.FLAG_NO_CLEAR which is user can not clear notification.This is custom view probably which added by remote views. — Ajit Kumar Dubey, Aug 20 '15 at 15:16

It doesn't seem to be an ongoing notification. (It's not being under the Ongoing tag being the clue, otherwise I could be sure that this was the case)

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Notification.Builder.html#setOngoing%28boolean%29

It is probably a custom remote view

A quick google search will give you examples.
