How can I transfer ringtones from GarageBand to my iPhone 15?

I just changed my iPhone 12 to a new iPhone 15. I did not use the transfer method from the old phone because I didn't want all the old stuff that I no longer use on the new phone.

I had several ringtones that I created using GarageBand. I cannot find a way to add them. You also used to be able to choose a song from the library as a ringtone, but that feature seems to be gone.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you for responding so quickly, SravanKra, but I do not want to purchase a Ringtone. I want to use the ones that I had on the previous phone, but they are no longer listed in the Sounds & Haptics > Ringtone and Alerts section of settings.

I found a solution:

I used GarageBand on the phone and exported the files as Ringtone. The challenge was learning how to save and then find the files on the phone!! I've got back almost all of my old ringtones. Just one file isn't working, so I have to try to figure out why.

There are several YouTube videos on the subject.

Could you post how you got them on the phone and found them? Or link to the most useful videos? It would help others coming here and having the same problems.
