When you use a hashtag in a message, that word becomes searchable allowing you to see all the messages relating to that topic.

If you want to see all the messages in one location, you can just tap on the hashtag and all the messages with that hashtag will come up.

Admittedly it isn’t an essential feature for most people. View Search Results in List View
