Gboard might be a system default keyboard for some Android phones and tablets.
If you’re using an iPhone or iPad, go to Settings > General > Keyboard > Edit and add Gboard to the list of keyboards. If you’re using Android, go to Settings > System > Language and Input > Manage Keyboards and tap the switch next to Gboard to enable it.
Make sure you use the numerical keypad to enter these numbers, as the number row above the letters will not produce the same results.
If nothing appears, make sure your number lock is activated and try again. You can also try Alt+0178. If you’re having trouble, you can also pull up the character map and choose the squared symbol from there. To find the character map, type “charmap” in the Windows search bar, and then click the desktop application that pops up in search results. Double-click the little 2 and then copy and paste it into your document. Press the “NumLk” key again to turn off Number Lock.

You might have to select the superscript 2 from the “Related Characters” box on the right side of the window. You’ll see the squared symbol inserted where your cursor is located.
