Yes, that appears to be the case. It's not a problem for me because I nearly always have a cell signal or WiFi available, but it would be nice! Those interminable waits for downloads are annoying! I told it to download to the device, but no joy.
I think they have plans to enable that feature because the download button is there, and they have rhetoric on their website that seems to indicate it's in the plans. And this app is still a very rough beta. We can hope.
