Navigating under lock screen windows phone

Question

I have created an app in which I want the app to run under lock screen and it involves navigating between pages. The issue is, it gives me an error "cannot navigate under lock screen". Is there a workaround for it?

Unfortunately, when phone is locked, your app goes in background (if you're using background services) or gets deactivated. In this case page-navigation OR UI related tasks can't be performed. You may, however, run background tasks.
