Buying victory points with intrigue card "To the victor"

[Niloc]

So my game plan was to win the conflict and buy 3 victory points with ressources. I had 7 solari and 1 spice.
After I won the conflict I wanted to play "to the victor" to receive 3 spice and buy the 3rd point, but the app only allowed me to play the intrigue card afterwards. So I wasn't able to buy a 3rd point.
Is this a bug or does it work as intended?

This thread would suggest that you should be able to play "to the victor" before deciding if you want to buy extra VPs. The rule book is a bit vague about the exact timing of receiving rewards from combat. I think the app always gives all of the rewards from combat before giving you the chance to play intrigue cards which might be incorrect.
