  Hi there,

  The widget you’re looking for is called the Blog Subscriptions (Jetpack) widget. It’s added to your site by the Jetpack plugin.

  You can find the documentation for that feature here:

  Homepage

  Please contact Jetpack support directly via that page if you need any more help with this.

  I mean the little W icon that says Follow me on WordPress. I see this feature on the app reader version of my blog, but want to add it to my actual blog page.

  That is not a widget. That is the external follow button. To have a button like that on your site you need to generate the code for it that’s unique to your site, and then add that code in a HTML widget on your site.
