I've been a long time iPhone/Mac guy and activated my first android (Galaxy S4) yesterday. I'm trying to learn it and am doing ok but the challenge I am facing is related to the lock screen/pin lock.
Essentially, I want to use the pin lock to secure my phone but still receive the push notification previews from text messages, new gmail messages, instagram, and linkedin as I did on my iPhone. I downloaded widgetlocker but it doesn't seem to play well with the pin lock and so far only has allowed me to access the camera and drop in the dashclock widget (without pin) but I am not getting previews of new texts and other messages. This is a big deal for me as I need to have that quick preview of items that may need immediate attention without fully unlocking my phone. Any advice would be very much appreciated!
Thanks!
