What 𖪚 means
One character carries the vowel glide and tone together. /ɯu/ starts with ɯ, an “oo”-like vowel said with relaxed lips, then moves toward u. In Muishvung, tone 4 ends with a glottal stop—a brief catch in the throat—so q names the tone, not a consonant.
Muishvung is a Tangsa variety spoken near the India–Myanmar border. In a syllable, 𖪚 is its vowel, usually after an initial consonant; a final consonant may follow. The vowel and tone are one character, with no separate combining tone mark. A 2019 revision added distinctions for other Tangsa varieties; community promotion began at the Pangsau Pass Festival in January 2020. Tone realization varies among varieties.

1Why does 𖪚 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.
