What 𮷴 means

It is read dé and means the same as 德.

Unicode ties this form to China's Ministry of Public Security ID system in 2023. CJK Extension I was expedited because these characters were urgently needed in China; that date marks the form's path into encoding, not its first appearance in writing.

The older graph 𢛳 is linked to 德 and appears as a component in 𮷴.

Why does 𮷴 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.
