What 䳔 means

It names a bird. Its earliest known dictionary entry is in the Eastern Han Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese dictionary, which glosses it simply as “a bird.” The entry analyzes the form as 鳥 (“bird”) plus 𦥑, a component that hints at its sound. Later records link 䳔 to 䳎 and 𨾹.

Why does 䳔 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.
