I think you may be picking them too soon. Leave them on the tree and allow them to ripen a bit longer.

Is that tree producing apples from the original root stock or from the graft? I am not sure about MacIntosh apple trees, but it seems to me that all fruit trees sold these days have grafts. Take an apple with you to a local fruit orchard or the produce manager at a local market and ask if it is indeed MacIntosh or something else.

Pour sugar water around the base of the tree

My Prairie Spy don't sweeten up until after a hard frost. Yours may just need a little more time. RScott

Agree with RScott
Let them ripen more, windfalls are usually sweetest
