How does a macro recorder work?
You press record, do the task, and stop. The tool keeps each action as a step. Replaying runs the steps in order. Simple recorders replay what they saw word for word; better ones can use different values on each run, wait for slow pages and skip steps that are not needed.
What is special about a browser macro recorder?
It works inside the browser, so it can find a button on a page again by what it is, not only by where it sits on the screen. It works only for web pages, not for desktop programs. See record and replay browser actions in Chrome and the browser macro recorder page.
