As I wrote in the answer to the question that you linked to, the standard Android lockscreen framework only supports app widgets from Android 4.1 through 4.4, which is a steadily shrinking portion of the Android device ecosystem.

Or this can be achieved by making custom lock screen for application.

Android does not support the creation of custom lockscreens, other than by building your own modified version of Android, poured into your own custom ROM, installed onto whatever hardware your custom ROM supports.

There are plenty of developers who claim to create custom lockscreens. Those actually require you to disable the device lockscreen, then their apps attempt to interpose themselves between the user and ordinary apps. At the best of times, this offers weaker security.
