Shortcut or swipe gesture to swipe down notification bar

I'm loving my new Moto Z2 Force, but I'm missing one particular feature.
On my last Android I had a down arrow on the bottom right corner that would bring down the notification bar without having to swipe down from the top of the screen. Is there a way to add that to the Moto gestures or to the navigation bar?
 
Not as elegant as a little down arrow but if you can live with a full size app icon try Pull Down Status Bar available for free in the Play Store.

I especially like the developers description:

"Adds 2 shortcuts to your phone that you can tag to pull down notification bar.

Super simple and completely free. No ads, no usage tracking, no in-app purchase, no BS. I wrote this for myself because all the ones I have tried from the play store were either not working or infested with Ads."

Ahhhhhh :) Thanks :) I was just wondering this instead of the date always showing up from the drop down menu.
