Any app developer can see free storage space. These are numbers from my app, which might not be truly representative, but is probably pretty close. Just add storage space logging to your app. Anything under 5 percent free and the play store refuses to do updates.

I think private storage is limited in size.

Public storage is a different story, but that is not "any app" anymore.

That is not the case[1].
