Knowing typical microsoft lack of forethought,..
Make it an 'incognito' session!
Whilst the term 'incognito' might be web browser specific; the idea of protecting the general phone user from 'random word searches' and 'pranks by work mates'... is necessary.
I used to let friends share my wireless internet at home... until MY google search results (and more so, 'targeted advertising') were affected by THEIR web searches.
This is just a disaster waiting to happen, like using 'hey siri' to set a workmates alarm for 2am...

i agree with both comments below on the matter... what's the point on adding features to the lock screen when it's supposed to be locked (there shouldn't be any accidental press buttons) the search engine is good and all but i can't work around the idea, i know some ppl don't mind about it, but i'm the kinda guy that disables camera and call option fomr the lock screen

Microsoft should focus on reviving the already dead "windows mobile" before making apps for Android

Stop saying that the Windows Phone is dying. It has around 3% global market share which means millions of users around the globe.
And by the way this Article is about the Microsoft's Lock Screen app in ANDROID.

To who ever thinks that W10M is dying, go look on their reddit page. This OS is still very much alive and supported. Go look into it before you posted cringy nonsense here.

What's the point of the lockscreen then, if I can search and call a cab *accidentally* from the pocket?

May as well they just close their win 10 mobile division.

Only if Microsoft would channel these efforts towards their own dying mobile platform. Or atleast show the same enthusiasm towards Windows 10 Mobile.
