I doubt you'll look much different than you do in real life...except maybe a bit grainier and delayed...

Ive not seen any options to do video calls.
Ive used it for voice calls only in the past and all it can do is display a static picture of yourself that you have added in your profile


Also their website doesnt mention anything about video...
