Hello MaryAMunoz,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. We understand that you'd like to allow an app access while your iPhone 12 Pro Max screen is locked. We're happy to help.


There's currently no option to change allow this type of access for a third-party app. Take a look at the following resource for more information on the features you can allow access when the iPhone is locked:

Control access to information on the iPhone Lock Screen


You can also contact the app developer to see if there are any settings that can be adjusted within the app.
