Unfortunately, the iOS application doesn't support that option. Any iOS purchase immediately starts to download, and you have to go in and pause it manually.
The app also only lets you purchase one issue per transaction.

That's why turning it off everywhere except the web would have worked. The web interface allows buyers to bundle multiple issues into a transaction and doesn't add an immediate download request to every purchase. It would have cut the server load down immeasurably.
