Without more info, it is hard to know what is going on.  This actually sounds like more of a phone/application store problem.  Are you using iOS or Android?  Have you removed the app, power cycled your phone, and tried again?

"Download Pending" on Android is an issue related to your Google Play Store app.  I have seen this when the app you are trying to install is a larger one and the download will wait until you are connected to Wifi.  I don't know if that's the case here, but it's worth looking for the setting that allows you to download larger files over cellular connection.  The Play Store app could also need to be updated.  In summary, this isn't an issue with the Southwest app and googling "Download Pending Android" will have some other suggestions if the above doesn't work for you.
