undefined is not an object evaluating NativeReactModules.startApp

I just created new react-native app.

tried to build the app and printing "Hello, World" and it worked fine.

and then I installed react-native-navigation, and tried to use it, I registered one screen and startTabBasedApp.

the app is now showing me this error message:

Environment:

• React Native Navigation version: 1.1.171
