Because I don't know how to translate that correctly.

"Launcher" is capitalized, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be
translated. It is already localized in Ubuntu for PC: for example in
Polish it's "Panel"/"Panelu", while in German it's
"Starter".<https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/vivid/+source/unity-control-center/+pots/unity-control-center/pl/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=launcher>

"Unity" is quite different: it's a project name, which shouldn't
appear in the phone UI at all. (On the PC, I think it appears only to
distinguish Unity sessions from Gnome Shell, KDE, etc.)
