How do I find the My Verizon Mobile widget?

Hi, I just upgraded from a Droid RAZR to a Samsung Galaxy S5. On my old Droid RAZR, I had the My Verizon Mobile app, which had a helpful gauge as its app icon which showed my data usage. After activating my new Galaxy last night, I noticed it had the My Verizon Mobile app pre-installed on it. It needed an update, but once it updated I got a notification along the lines of "you spoke and we listened! Now you can choose from 3 different designs for the data gauge widget!" So clearly it should be available on my phone. However, the app's icon is just a plain red square with the white silhouette of a person on it. When I open the app, it all looks the same as it did on my RAZR (home screen shows minutes and data usage, there are tabs for paying my bill and checking my plan, etc). But nowhere can I find an option to use the data usage widget that I'm used to. Where is it hidden?

Long press on an empty spot on any screen; at the bottom of the screen you'll see Wallpapers, Widgets, etc.... tap Widgets and you'll find them all there.

I like the gauge showing up to date data usage too!!
