presets on desktop that use features not available on mobile

If I create a preset on Lr Desktop with something like, say, ‘refine saturation’ in the curves tool, and I want apply that to an image when using Lr Mobile (iPad) which doesn’t have that specific feature, will that edit be applied properly?  The flow would look something like:

  1. create preset on my desktop that utilizes refine saturation, the preset syncs to the cloud
  2. months later I’m traveling with only my ipad
    1. I load images to Lr on my ipad
    2. Open an image and apply the preset

    Yes, it will. There’s just no user interface to be able to view or edit the setting on mobile. I’ve just checked with a preset that solely changes the Refine Saturation slider.
