.m4r files in Garageband import into Ringtone?

I have successfully uploaded .m4r files into garageband on my iphone. How do I get them to appear in the settings - sounds & haptics - ringtone settings so I can select them? Then I'd like to assign them to different contacts on my iphone as a ringtone? What are the instructions and what am I missing here?


thanks!
