You can't browse your iphone because file system is closed. Only your application can browse its own filesystem.You can store pdf and text file into your document directory or Library. Read NSFileManager from apple documentation. You can send data of the desired file in HTTP Post and put content-type as "text/pdf" for PDF file – Ashim Jun 10 '13 at 10:48

Its not possible to Monitor(Browse) the Files in IOS. Apple does not Approve this type of applications. And also iPhone/iPad we can't access the Other Application Data's. As per your point The PDF must be located in Other iOS Application. We can't Browse the Files Except Bundles and Documents folder.
Only way you can Upload file to Server and Make browser list Using Tableview.
The following are the possible ways to do this.
FTP UPLOAD: We can Upload Documents to FTP Server and Download Via FTP in iOS. In This. Upload and Download we neet to use Authentication policy. SimpleFTPSample Upload things to a FTP in Objective-C iOS
Server Upload. We can Upload File to Server(Php,ASP.net,ect). The download is Ordinary method. Link 1 Link 2

You app runs in a Sandbox environment. This means the app can only access files and directories within its own contents.
