What 韺 means

It names ancient music, traditionally linked to Di Ku.

The early dictionary Yupian records 六韺 as Di Ku’s music. Other glosses give 五韺 and differ on the ruler linked to it, leaving the exact origin unsettled.

A Tang poem pairs 韶, music associated with Shun, with 韺. 韶韺 later names both traditions and ancient court music broadly; a Qing citation also records 韺韶.

Why does 韺 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.
