Hello, welcome to Android Central! It's meant to be like that. The lock screen is designed to protect your information (and money). For example. In most phones you can open the camera from the lock screen, you won't need to unlock to take a photo but you won't be able to get into the gallery until you unlock the phone. Also, there's a shortcut to go to your dialer to make a call, but you need to enter your password before it opens. And it's a good system, no personal information in your phone can be accessed before unlocking it.
