Kind of old question now, but from WWDC 2018 Session 216: Managing Documents In Your iOS App, they state that the main difference is that the Document Picker is meant for quick user interaction while the Document Browser is meant to be the main document browsing UI of your app.

Document Picker vs Document Browser

I recommend watching the session (about 10 minutes in) for more details.
