Since LR has this option in the latest version on desktop, it would be great to add tone curves inside masking tools on iPad as well.

Really great tool already on desktop and easy to implement, everything is here you just have to grant us access. Very usefull when you have to adjust colors in details on portion of the on the picture. Having it on iPad would be game changer to do those type of color adjsutments on the go

+1, Lightroom has been awesome for its parity across iPadOS and macOS, this is a annoying detail that's missing.

Currently iPad and mobile versions don't have the Mask slider or tone curve adjustment in masks. 

 

 These tools are extremely useful for adding nuanced overall edits, which is what the lower resolution preview files used by the mobile platforms are best suited to. 

 Masks can also be applied to entire images to function like an adjustment layer in photoshop, and the opacity slider makes this much more versatile. 

 

 As is there is largely feature parity with tools that don't work nicely when going from low-resolution preview back to full size raw (generative remove, remove tools for example cause a blurry low resolution patch to appear on originals), but certain tools that suit the workflow seem to have been forgotten.

I often use the curves functionality when adjusting masked areas. Unfortunately, this is only available on desktop. On mobile, you'll see/work from the "adjusted" version. But, you can't tell that there are even changes to curves, let alone adjust them. It'd be really helpful to bring that functionality iOS/iPadOS (and I assume, but don't know for sure, Android).

Why not add the possibility do manage curves (and others resources) when mask is activated?
