What 𢹼 means

It writes the Mandarin verb 砸, “to strike.”

Pronounced zá, 砸 means to hit, smash, or pound with force. A 2018 vocabulary guide for three Chinese vernacular works—《金瓶梅》, 《醒世姻缘传》 and 《聊斋俚曲集》—records 𢹼 as a variant of 砸 for this action.

Why does 𢹼 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
