When Can You Delete a Snapchat Message?

So as soon as someone views the message, you can no longer delete it. You also cannot delete messages that the other person has saved.
In addition, when you delete a message, Snapchat adds a note to the chat saying that a message was removed. It does not reveal the actual message, but the recipient knows a message was deleted from the chat.
