Answer 1

The only way to put an app on the lock screen, that I know of, is to design it as widget. For example you can have a look at google documentation.

As far as I know at the moment there is no way to put an Android webview inside a widget and that is what you would essentially need to do. You should also see this SO question.

Hope this is a start for you ;-)
