Apple newbie - When are the ready to harvest?

Well , as an update, I still have not identified the variety although I am pretty sure from the replies posted that it is not Granny Smith. Too many had too much red. When “ripe” They were blush to deep red with green and yellow green areas and speckled. The flesh is cream colored and crisp with a sweet/tart flavor, similar but not the same as Granny Smith. This years small crop yielded one 13X9" pan of apple crisp that was pretty good.
