Lockscreen App Quick launch missing after 5.0?

[einfachzeit]

Man I REALLY used this feature a lot. Quick way to get to the apps I used the most. Saw some launchers and widgets that are janky work arounds in the Play store but non did the trick.

Google tightened up security for the lockscreen for Lollipop and, as a result, lockscreen widgets went bye-bye. Unless you dispense with the default Android lockscreen and go with a third party program, you'll be stuck without the added functionality.
