Hi, The_king123.


You'd follow the steps in the following article in order to set up custom ringtones: Use tones and ringtones with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


If this is isolated to a song you've created in GarageBand, make sure it's been exported correctly:

Export the project as a ringtone
1.) Open GarageBand on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
2.) In the My Songs browser, tap Browse Browse button, tap Select, then tap the project you shared from your Mac.
3.) Tap Share button, then tap Ringtone.
4.) Enter a name for the ringtone, then tap Export. If the ringtone is longer than 30 seconds, tap Continue to have GarageBand shorten the ringtone automatically. Or, tap Cancel to return to the song so you can shorten it.
5.) Tap Export.
6.) When the ringtone is finished exporting, you can assign the ringtone.

If the issue is isolated to this one ringtone, try creating another one to see if the issue persists.


Let us know the results.


Cheers.
