By default, you should notice a SHARE button with a Google+ button on the mobile view of your blog. If not, you should activate it by following the steps below:

1. Sign in to www.blogger.com
2. Click on your blog and go to "Layout"
3. Click on the "edit" link on the "Blog Posts" section

4. Click on Edit as shown Below:
5. Click "Save"

Once it starts displaying on the mobile view of your blog, if you click on SHARE, a new window should pop up, where you can select where you want to share the post.

To be honest, most of your blog visitors might not know they can also share to Facebook, etc using that default share button. Hence, the need to add a separate Facebook share and Twitter button below it.

Now the main work is here:



To do that, go to "Template" > "Edit HTML"

1. Click inside the Html Codes and use CTRL F to find
<b:if cond='data:top.showMobileShare'>

2. Carefully find the ending </div> as seen in the screenshot below:

3. There are three ending </div> as seen in the screenshot above 
4. Directly below the third one, copy and paste the code below:


5. Save your template.

Check out the posts on the mobile view of your Blogger blog and you should notice the share and tweet buttons been displayed below the posts.



IMPORTANT NOTE:
Be completely careful when using the html file section, it may cause more harm than good to your blogger files to avoid changing new templates...
Apply and preview your changes to confirm if it is work.
