Add an App to the Lock Screen
When you lock your PC, Windows 8 displays icons for apps that have had recent notifications. For example, the Mail app shows the number of unread messages, and the Messages app shows the number of new text messages. The lock screen also shows any new notifications that appear for these apps.
