There's an xposed module (Samsung Multiple Widgets) to allow for widgets with a secure lock screen. I use a pattern lock and it works. Should be the same for pins.

I tried it with a pin lock and it still works.
You need to be rooted and you install the Xposed framework + the Samsung multiple widget module.
There are many guides on how to root your device, but chances are that if you're work wants your device to be secure, they won't allow you to root...
Hope that helps.

make sure to make screen lock as swipe.
do a factory reset if u are on 4.3 and the option to add widgets is disabled

When you have pin on lockscreen all widgets on lockscreen are disabled,alternative would be getting widget locket (it's a paid app),add widgets you want and when you unlock your phone via widget locker you can still have your stock lockscreen show up with pin.So you got widgets plus secure phone,that's the only solution for now

Anybody know of an app besides executive assistant that puts info on your lock screen. Like mail, calender appointments and so on.

i use WidgetLocker. it works great and basically lets you put any widget, or application shortcut on the lock screen as well as custom sliders.

having trouble with the lock screen and security. I can put widget and apps on the lock screen no problem. But when I add a password or pin or other type of security I no longer have access to the widgets and apps on the lock screen. is the a short coming in Android 4.2 or am I missing something?
It is working as designed. Password or pin means security and widgets bypass this. Pick a less secure option or give up widgets.

Not natively, but the solution I set up for my wife's phone works pretty well. Try using Widgetlocker for your lockscreen, and setting your TW lockscreen security to pattern or pin. Unfortunately you won't have the pretty lens flare effect, but it does work pretty well.

Surprising!! I thought the point to widgets on the lock screen was that you could easily and quickly perform or see something without having to UNLOCK your phone. Just don't understand!
in my S2 i had a number password and widgets.
when i chose a widget to open it would first ask for a password and then open the app.
don't get why this isn't the case in my S4 (SGH-I337M).
So in the lockscreen before you draw the pattern or password, I have a digital clock. If you slide the screen to right or left you can add a widget of your choice but it only gives you a choice of like 5 widgets that are Google related. I couldn't find a way to add my own. Is there such a way? Thank you.

By default apps have to declare lockscreen widget to show up in lockscreen widget picker. If you want all widgets then you will need a custom ROM (or some Xposed module, I believe).
Not sure if this was addressed already but is there ANY way, even if the device needs to be rooted, for the camera or apps to be accessible through lockscreen without having to unlock similar to IOS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

You can download this right here and have the iOS 7 lock screen which you can set up the camera up to it. Also if you don't put a pass code on your phone you can have widgets on it and you can pull your camera up from there as well.

Can't you just setup a PIN in your phone then enable the Camera to appear as a Lock Screen Widget from your lockscreen?

if you setup a PIN to unlock you phone you can't have a lockscreen widget besides the clock, but if you set just swipe to unlock, you can add more widgets to your lockscreen ( if you enable multiple lockscreen widgets on settings->lockscreen). Just swipe down when you're on lockscreen and then swipe from left to right to add more widgets

But will this give me access to the camera without first unlocking my phone?
This seems to be a big problem with the S4
I use widget locker. It will give you what you're looking for and worth every penny.

Having a problem with Widgetlocker on my Note 3...
Installed Widgetlocker via direct purchase from teslacoilsw.com. Software is installed & basically 'works', but I'm unable to pull up the Add menu via long press. Tool mode and/or lockscreen...neither pull up the Add menu. What's strange is I get some haptic feedback during long press in tool mode and if I tap around a bit & can get random stuff to happen (like adding an app shortcut to the screen). It's like the menu is 'there' but it's not visible or something. Any suggestions?
Reinstalled & all's good now...nm. (mods, delete post if needed)
~thx
Hi,having the same problem...for my case if you used custom wallpaper then the add menu is like hidden behind the wallpaper,maybe you need to check using custom wallpaper first
Sent the dev an email and he's looking into it. I found that using an alternate wallpaper doesn't do good either.

Would love to be able to send the developer and email. After figuring a way to install on the Note 3, since it shows unavailable for Note 3 on "play" - now I have the pull down notification bar sitting "behind" whatever I add to my Widgetlocker screen...making the pull down virtually unusable...maybe if you could tell me how to submit this to developer...?

On the play store I believe there is a link. As a work around I hide the notification bar and use Dashclock. I also think the dev just became a "daddy" so we may have to wait a bit.

I was wondering how you could hide the lockscreen notification bar.
I am using nova launcher prime and that easily lets me hide the homescreen notification bar but I couldn't figure out how to disable it on lockscreen.
