Set it as your iPhone ringtone
On iPhone (no computer):

- In GarageBand's My Songs, long-press the project → Share → Ringtone → Export → Use sound as… Standard Ringtone.
With a computer: connect your iPhone, open Finder (Mac) or iTunes (Windows) and drag the .m4r file onto your iPhone in the sidebar. Then pick it in Settings → Sounds & Haptics → Ringtone.

Use it as a notification sound

Why iPhone needs M4R
iOS only lists ringtones that are AAC audio files with the .m4r extension. A renamed MP3 won't work. This tool actually re-encodes your audio to AAC and packages it the way iOS expects, so it shows up under Settings → Sounds & Haptics → Ringtone.
