In this video, I'll be walking you through every single step in the process of rooting your Pixel 4a.
With an unlockable bootloader and a price tag that keeps the risk-reward ratio low, the Pixel 4a is the new king of rootable phones.
You'll have to enable Developer Options, allow OEM unlocking, unlock the bootloader, then patch the stock boot image and flash it in fastboot — but it's not as bad as it sounds if you have somebody walking you through each step.

How to Keep Your Phone from Sleeping in Certain Apps [Xposed]

In this video, Ill be showing you a new Xposed Module called Stay Awake - keep screen on that lets you quickly disable the screen timeout on a per-app basis.
With this one installed, just press both volume buttons simultaneously, and the app that is currently in the foreground will instantly have an infinite screen-on time. The system screen-on timeout stays the same, so other apps will not be affected, only the one in the foreground when you pressed the button combo. Then its really easy to toggle off, so its a great way to prevent unwanted screen timeouts.
