Tap to select the Band. When you open the app, you'll see all the Bands you're in. By tapping one you're opening that Band page.

Tap a conversation. You'll see all the replies in that chat thread.
Tap ⋮ or ☰. The icon will vary between devices, but you'll find the More or Settings menu in the upper right corner of the chat.
Tap Settings. You'll find this at the bottom of the menu that slides out from the right.
Tap Manage Chat Storage. You'll see this above Close this chat room.
Tap to select Don't store any chats, For 30 days, or For 1 year. The setting you select will apply to all the Band members immediately, but will not recover any past messages. You will lose those messages if the time limit passes and you log out of the app, delete your account, change your device, or reinstall the app. For example, if you are engaged in a chat with messages over 1-year-old, you will still see those messages until you log out and log back in.
