I got a moto x 2014 with lollipop. When my phone is locked I can reply to emails but not messages. Is there a way to do this??!!! Please and thank you!

Only if the text app you're using supports it. I use 8 SMS, which allows reply, mark as read, and call from the notification. Should be built in to stock, and certainly Google's Messenger app.

Verizon Messages+ can if you enable it.
