What 𣺮 means

The curve of a river or an inlet. A 1683 county geography record names 鸦鹊𣺮 along a river route. A 1901 guide to mapping the Han River lists 水𣺮 among the features to draw. These examples show its practical role: local writers used it to identify specific bends and bays.

Why does 𣺮 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.
