What 𘲜 means
It fit Khitan words, which attach grammatical endings.
Created around 925 CE, the small script grouped characters that represented sounds to spell words. The Khitan people of northern China spoke a language that often adds endings to words. The parallel Khitan Large Script relied more on signs for whole words or ideas; Jurchen scripts also adapted Khitan models.

1Why does 𘲜 show as a box on some devices?
It is recent: Unicode added it in version 13.0 (2020), and phones and computers whose fonts are older than that have nothing to draw it with. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
