I have developed a SharePoint autohosted app using VS2013. I have been able to successfully get it deployed to my Office 365 based SharePoint. The app has an app part included and I have been able to insert that app part into pages of the sites in my SharePoint.

What I would like to do is add this app part to the NewsFeed or About Me pages. However, when I go to "Edit Page" under the Gear icon for those pages and then select "Add a Web Part" my app part is not visible as being available. On normal pages, my app part is at the top of the list and I can add it without any issues. It looks like the list of available web parts for these pages is completely different.

Is there a special way to get app parts visible for adding to About Me/Newsfeed pages in SharePoint?

    Have you deployed the app to that site collection?

An admin needs to go to navigate to the newsfeed root site collection, click on site contents and add you app, then add the part to the page by editing it; the change will apply to ALL my sites.
