How does it open? Like a door bell button? I think MyQ has addon things that will use that to open/close it. Wyze might be the cheapest you attach their garage door device to a Wyze camera and point it at the inside of the garage door. It pushes the button to open/close and uses the camera to sense a QR code you attach to the back of the garage door to tell whether the door is open or closed.

Lots of other good ideas here. I'll just add some thoughts.
Adding some pipe insulation from the hot water heater to your shower might help a bit.
I suppose you could add some instant hot water heater system or even a second small hot water heater close to your shower to eliminate the heat up time.
If you are this interested it might be worth having a plumber come out to consult about what the issue might be and what the possibilities are. A lot might depend on your specific setup and how accessible the pipes are without completely ripping apart your walls.
