This can be changed later from the settings:
Settings
> Screen lock and passwords
> Screen lock style
Select Magazine unlock or any other screen lock style that you may have downloaded.

There are a lot of apps which run in the background, but sometimes those apps use a huge amount of your monthly data allowance without you knowing.

If you want to cut an app off from using background data, go to:
Settings > Data traffic management > Networked apps.
Setup any restrictions as required. Keep in mind, cutting an app off from using background data will probably restrict the app from receiving push notifications.
