Unity3d development, how can I know how much memory of system is unused?

I want to know this to debug my app. I deeply suspect it's the lack of memory that caused the app crashed. Thanks!

You should use the Profiler. Here, the section dedicated to memory.

An extracted from the documentation (Simple mode):

enter image description here

The Simple view shows a simple overview how memory is used throughout Unity in real-time on a per-frame basis. Unity reserves memory pools for allocations in order to avoid asking the operating system for memory too often. This is displayed as a reserved amount, and how much is used.

The areas covered by this are:

  • Unity The amount of memory tracked by allocations in native Unity code
  • Mono The total heap size and used heap size used by managed code. This memory is garbage-collected
  • GfxDriver The estimated amount of memory the driver is using on Textures, render targets, Shaders and Mesh data.
  • FMOD The Audio driver’s estimated memory usage
  • Profiler Memory used for the Profiler data
