To automatically delete all chats after 24 hours, you'll need to use a messaging app that supports this feature, as not all text messaging apps offer it. For example, in WhatsApp, go to 'Settings' > 'Account' > 'Privacy' > 'Default message timer' and select '24 hours'. This will ensure new chats will automatically delete messages after 24 hours. Remember, this setting might not apply to existing chats, and you may need to enable it for each chat individually.
