      "question": "What is the HypeRate IRL Widget Configurator?",
      "answer": "A free browser-based tool that generates customizable overlay widget URLs for IRL (In Real Life) streams. It combines heart rate, GPS location, speed, distance, G-force, elevation, and live weather into widgets you add to OBS as a Browser Source."
    },
    {
      "question": "How do I add an IRL widget to OBS?",
      "answer": "In OBS: Sources → click + → choose Browser → paste the generated widget URL. Set width/height to match your overlay area. Enable hardware acceleration if animated icons appear choppy."
    },
    {
      "question": "What data sources can I display?",
      "answer": "Time, burned calories (kcal/cal), speed (km/h or mph), distance (km or mi), G-force, GPS location (city & country / country only / flag only), temperature (°C or °F + UV index), precipitation probability (%), wind speed (km/h or mph), and elevation (m or ft)."
    },
    {
      "question": "Is the configurator free?",
      "answer": "Yes, completely free. No subscription or payment required."
    },
    {
      "question": "Do I need a HypeRate account?",
      "answer": "No account is needed to configure and preview with dummy data. A HypeRate Device ID (from the HypeRate app on your phone) is needed for live telemetry."
    },
    {
      "question": "What equipment is needed?",
      "answer": "A GPS-enabled smartphone running the HypeRate app provides location, speed, distance, and elevation. A Bluetooth heart rate monitor is optional but adds heart rate and calorie data. Weather data is fetched automatically from Apple Weather via GPS coordinates."
    },
    {
      "question": "Which unit systems are supported?",
      "answer": "Metric and Imperial. Speed, distance, elevation, temperature, and wind speed all respect the unit system toggle. Calories can be in kilocalories or calories independently."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can I use a custom font?",
      "answer": "Yes. Paste a public CSS URL (e.g. Google Fonts) in the Custom Font URL field and type the exact font-family name. The widget browser source loads it at runtime."
    },
    {
      "question": "Why is my widget background transparent?",
      "answer": "Background uses 8-digit hex (#RRGGBBAA). The last two digits control opacity — 00 is transparent, FF is opaque. Example: #00000066 = 40% opaque black. Use the opacity slider or edit the hex directly."
    },
    {
      "question": "What is the difference between Summary View and Auto-Switching?",
      "answer": "Summary View shows all widgets in a group simultaneously side by side. Auto-Switching rotates through one widget at a time every N seconds via a single URL — useful when screen space is limited."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can I use weather widgets without a heart rate monitor?",
      "answer": "Yes. Temperature, precipitation, wind speed, UV index, and elevation come from Apple Weather via GPS — no heart rate monitor required."
    },
    {
      "question": "How is weather data sourced?",
      "answer": "Powered by Apple Weather, fetched automatically from your HypeRate device's GPS coordinates."
    },
    {
      "question": "Is the location widget privacy-safe?",
      "answer": "Use Country Only or Flag Only display modes to reduce location precision if you don't want to share your exact city with viewers."
